Lagos is our home and we can’t afford to lose it to destruction by hoodlums who have hijacked the well organized and peaceful protests across the state and country at large, he noted.
We will continue to engage the Government, also make sure the offenders are brought to book and there is a compensation to the families who lost any members of their family.
The association urged all Nigerian students to stay safe, and ensure that all news posted are from verified sources, noting that fake news would only fuel the chaos at hand and expose people to danger.
We call on student leaders in various institutions to enlighten their members on the need to remain safe and not to engage in any form of violence, Comrade Rasheed added.
