NANS COMMENDS PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU FOR YULETIDE SEASON TRANSPORT DISCOUNT, URGES FURTHER STUDENTS SUPPORT.

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) extends its heartfelt appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his exemplary initiative in implementing a 50% transport discount for travelers during this festive Yuletide season. This remarkable decision demonstrates President Tinubu's commitment to the welfare of Nigerian citizens and showcases a proactive step towards alleviating the burdens faced by travelers during this celebratory period.

Acknowledging this gesture as a positive step, NANS praises President Tinubu's sensitivity to the needs of the people, especially during a time when travel expenses can be particularly burdensome. This discount undoubtedly eases the financial strain on many Nigerians, making it more feasible for them to reunite with loved ones and partake in the festivities.

However, while appreciating this thoughtful gesture, NANS, in its advocacy for students' welfare, encourages President Tinubu to consider extending this generosity further for the students across the nation. Recognizing the financial challenges faced by students, especially during the holiday season, NANS urges President Tinubu to further alleviate the burden by offering free transport for students who can be identified with their Student Identity Cards.

NANS understands the importance of supporting the educational pursuits of Nigerian students and firmly believes that such an extension of the transport discount to students would significantly alleviate their financial challenges, enabling them to travel to their respective homes without undue financial constraints.

NANS remains committed to advocating for the welfare and interests of Nigerian students and eagerly anticipates further positive actions that prioritize the well-being of the nation's youth.
