“Stay at home” and cope with incessant strikes– Shehu Sani tells young Nigerians in Ukraine
Former senator representing the Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani, has advised Nigerians to settle for studying in government-owned universities, rather than face war and racism in their quest for education abroad.
He stated via his Twitter page that students “dying to study abroad” should instead “stay at home” and cope with incessant strikes by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
“Those who are dying to study abroad, stay at home and get into federal or state university. It’s better to hustle with ASUU than war and racism,” he tweeted.
Sani’s tweet comes amid the reports of Nigerian students stranded in Ukraine which is facing an ongoing war with Russia.
In the meantime, Nigerians still in Ukraine will now be evacuated through the nation’s embassy in Poland amid a Russian invasion.
