The African Action Congress presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore has joined the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), to protest at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos on Monday.

Sowore said it was important for the students to intensify their actions saying, “this is your struggle.”

“I am a comrade and I remain a comrade forever, anything you need from us, let us know, but this is your struggle.

“Nigerian students delivered independence to Nigeria in 1960, after this, they hijacked it and started using it against us. Nigerian students delivered the democracy we have today in in 1999, but when they flog people, it is the same us that they flog,” he said.

Wakadaily reports that the NANS, has vowed to ground activities at the local and international airports over the lingering strike action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
