Today, at the NANS National Inauguration, we declared a State of Emergency on students’ hostel conditions across Nigeria. The worsening state of accommodation in many tertiary institutions has become unacceptable, and NANS is committed to ensuring that students are provided with safe, conducive, and habitable living environments. We also announced our decision to relocate the NANS National Headquarters to Anambra State as part of our efforts to demand the immediate release of our student leaders, who are being unlawfully detained and oppressed. We strongly condemn what we consider the illegal detention of our comrades and call on Magistrate Nnamdi Aduma, who also serves as the Financial Secretary of the Magistrates’ Association of Nigeria, to ensure that justice prevails and that due process is respected. NANS will continue to stand firmly in defense of the rights, welfare, and freedom of Nigerian students. We will not be intimidated or silenced in our pursuit of justice. BABTEE NANS PRESIDENT.

PRESS BRIEFING BY THE POLICE PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICER, EDO STATE COMMAND, ON BEHALF OF THE COMMISSIONER OF POLICE, CP MONDAY AGBONIKA, fdc, ON THE RESCUE OF THREE KIDNAPPED AMBROSE ALLI UNIVERSITY STUDENTS Gentlemen of the Press, Good afternoon, and thank you for honouring our invitation. I am here on behalf of the Commissioner of Police, Edo State Command, CP Monday Agbonika, fdc, to brief you on the circumstances surrounding the kidnapping of some students of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, and the successful rescue operation carried out by security operatives. On Sunday 12th July, 2026, at about 9:00 p.m., the DPO Iruekpen Division received a distress report that armed men suspected to be kidnappers had attacked at Ujemen G.T. Extension, Ekpoma. According to findings, following a distress scream outside a hostel gate in Ekpoma, one Peter Ekpen Adolor, a 24-year-old 300-Level student of Ambrose Alli University, attempted to open the gate to ascertain the situation. In the process, he was shot in the abdomen by one of the armed assailants. He was rushed to Eguaven Hospital, Ekpoma, where he was unfortunately confirmed dead by the doctor on duty. The attackers also abducted three persons , all students of Ambrose Ali university before escaping into the nearby bush. Upon receipt of the report, the Commissioner of Police immediately ordered the deployment of tactical teams and nearby Police Divisions including Ekpoma Division who were detailed for a joint rescue mission in collaboration with the Nigerian Army, the Edo State Security Corps (ESSC), and local hunters. The team subsequently conducted coordinated bush-combing and intelligence-led operations aimed at rescuing the hostages unhurt and apprehending the perpetrators. I am pleased to inform you that those sustained efforts paid off in the early hours of today, 14th July, 2026, at about 6:00 a.m., when the joint security team located the kidnappers’ hideout in Erah Forest and engaged the criminals in a fierce gun battle. The superior tactical response of the security operatives forced the kidnappers to abandon their captives and flee. During the operation, the three kidnapped AAU students Favour Okoroje (f) 21 yrs, Balogun precious (f) 19 yrs, Praise Obagbalu (f) 18 yrs were successfully rescued alive and rushed to the hospital for medical attention. The operation also led to the recovery of three AK-47 rifles with magazines, 36 rounds of 7.62mm live ammunitions, five mobile phones, two power banks, one red cross bag and one charger . One suspected kidnapper was neutralized, while another was apprehended with serious gunshot injuries. Operations are ongoing to apprehend the fleeing members of the notorious gang that specialised in kidnapping at Ekpoma and environs thereby ensuring that they are brought to justice. While the Command is pleased with the successful rescue of the abducted students, it remains deeply saddened by the unfortunate death of Peter Ekpen Adolor. On behalf of the Commissioner of Police, the officers, men and women of the Edo State Police Command extend heartfelt condolences to his family, the management of Ambrose Alli University, his fellow students, and all those affected by this tragic incident. The CP commends the bravery, professionalism, and resilience of the operatives of the Edo State Police Command, the Nigerian Army, the Edo State Security Corps, and the local hunters whose collective efforts made this successful operation possible. The CP also appreciates the continued support of the Edo State Government and members of the public, whose timely and credible information remains invaluable in the fight against crime. The Command wishes to reassure residents that operations against kidnappers and other violent criminals will continue with renewed intensity as the Command remains firm in its resolve to ensuring that every person involved in this heinous crime is arrested and prosecuted in accordance with the law.

It is with deep sadness and profound shock that I received the heartbreaking news of the tragic killing of a 300-level Anatomy student of Ambrose Alli University, who was reportedly shot in his hostel by suspected kidnappers in an off-campus student community last night. On behalf of the leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), I extend my heartfelt condolences to the family of the deceased, the students and management of Ambrose Alli University, and the entire student community. No parent should have to bury their child, and no student should lose their life while pursuing an education. This painful incident once again highlights the urgent need to strengthen security within and around our tertiary institutions. Students deserve to learn and live in a safe environment without fear of violence or criminal attacks. We call on the relevant security agencies to conduct a thorough investigation, apprehend those responsible, and ensure they are brought to justice. We also urge the appropriate authorities to take immediate steps to improve security in off-campus student communities to prevent further tragedies. May the soul of the departed rest in perfect peace, and may God grant the family, friends, and colleagues the strength to bear this irreparable loss. BABTEE NANS PRESIDENT

OUR FEMALE STUDENTS DESERVE SAFETY, DIGNITY, AND JUSTICE Last week, a female student from a tertiary institution in Ondo State reached out to me with a deeply disturbing experience. According to her, she had only one outstanding course preventing her from graduating with her colleagues. She returned to retake the course but was informed that she had failed again. When she approached the lecturer who also happened to be the HOD to understand what went wrong, she alleged that he told her she could never pass the course. She further alleged that, after several encounters, the lecturer demanded that she perform a sexual act on him in his office in exchange for a passing grade. Feeling trapped and believing she had no other option if she wanted to graduate, she said she complied and she gave the him BLOW JOB as demanded by him. She thought that would be the end of the ordeal. Instead, about a week later, she alleged that the same lecturer began calling her repeatedly and inviting her to his home, implying that she would have to continue the sexual relationship before he would finally clear her. Disturbed and afraid, she reached out to me for help. My initial intention was to escalate the matter immediately. However, she pleaded with me not to make the case public. Her only request was to be allowed to graduate without further harassment. I contacted relevant authorities within the institution, and within three hours I was informed that the student had been cleared. While I am relieved that she was able to complete her academic process, I am deeply saddened that she was too afraid to publicly identify herself or the lecturer involved. This reflects the fear, intimidation, and stigma that many female students face when confronted with sexual harassment. No student should ever be forced to exchange sexual favours for academic success. Our campuses must be places of learning, not environments where students are exploited by those entrusted with their education. I believe there are many similar cases that go unreported because victims fear victimisation, embarrassment, or retaliation. I pray that one day, more students will feel safe enough to speak out, knowing they will be protected and justice will be pursued. On this note, I urge every female student experiencing any form of sexual harassment, intimidation, or exploitation to do everything possible to reach out to the National Director of Gender, National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS). We are committed to handling such complaints professionally, confidentially, and with the seriousness they deserve. Together, we must build campuses where every student can pursue an education free from fear, harassment, and abuse. Thank you, and God bless you.
