Ahead of the forthcoming National Convention of the National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, a group within association, the Lagos G7 structure, has endorsed Comrade Ademola Solomon, popularly known as ‘Aluta Gas’ for the position of National General Secretary.

A statement issued by the Southwest Zonal Public Relations Officer, Comrade Tope Olugbemi said the caucus endorsed Solomon because of his credibility and resourcefulness.

Olugbemi, who is also the caucus spokesperson, said Solomon’s vision and experience is needed by the students body to move it to greater heights.

According to him, the endorsement is rooted in the candidate’s “Pinnacle Agenda,” which focuses on future leadership, students’ welfare and youth involvement in nation building.

He said, “In lieu of this, I, Comrade Tope Olugbemi, the Southwest Zonal PRO and spokesperson of the G7 Lagos Structure, alongside all the senators present, hereby endorse Comrade Ademola Solomon, popularly and radically known as Aluta Gas, for the position of National Secretary General at the forthcoming NANS National Convention”.

He called on senators across Zones A to F, as well as stakeholders and Nigerian students nationwide, to support and vote for the Lagos-born student activist at the convention.

Olugbemi noted that ‘Aluta Gas’ had held several positions before emerging as Students’ Union Government President of Federal College of Education (Technical) Akoka.
