Olushola Oladoja has emerged as the new National President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS)
Oladoja, a postgraduate student at the University of Jos, secured 300 votes to defeat his closest rivals—Salauhudeen Suleiman from the University of Abuja and Gambo Abubakar of Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University, Lapai.
The election took place on Wednesday at the Old Parade Ground in Abuja, with over 358 student leaders, including presidents of Students’ Union Governments from various tertiary institutions, participating in the process.
Comrade Suleiman Sariki, Chairman of the NANS Convention Committee, oversaw the exercise, which several delegates described as transparent and credible. Many commended the organizers for ensuring a smooth and fair election.
