NANS mourns 11 students of OOU

The National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, has expressed sadness over the death of 11 students of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye, Ogun State, who lost their lives on Friday in a road mishap.

Ayenuro Gbenga, the Vice President (National Affairs) of NANS, expressed the mood of the association in a statement made available to newsmen on Sunday in Akure.

He said, “it is with caring thoughts that the national secretariat of NANS regrets and commiserates with the teeming Nigerian students and the Olabisi Olabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye, over the death of 11 students of the institution.“We learnt that an unlatched 20-feet container from a moving truck came off when the driver was driving against traffic and in a bid to avoid obstruction, the container fell on the passenger-bus conveying some students along Lagos/Ibadan expressway.

“Words seem inadequate to express our sadness over the incident.“On behalf of the National Secretariat, I send  this to support the Nigerian students in our grieving process with sincere sympathy.
