Immediate past Senator representing the Kaduna Central
Senatorial District, Shehu Sani, has advised Nigerians to settle for studying
in government-owned universities, rather than face war and racism in their
quest for education abroad.
He stated via his Twitter page that students “dying to study
abroad” should instead “stay at home” and cope with incessant strikes by the
Academic Staff Union of Universities.
“Those who are dying to study abroad, stay at home and get
into federal or state university. It’s better to hustle with ASUU than war and
racism,” he tweeted.
Sani’s tweet comes amid the reports of Nigerian students
stranded in Ukraine which is facing an ongoing war with Russia.
Reacting to the tweet, one Twitter user, @YarKafanchan,
pointed at the state of insecurity in the Senator’s own state. He wrote, “Have
you forgotten the students in Kaduna State who have spent and are still
spending months in the dens of armed terrorists?”
“This is a country where hundreds of teenage schoolgirls get
kidnapped and spend month with their captors and it’s not major news. Nigerians
are safer among racists,” @EugenehoCortez tweeted.
@OgSadik stated that, “You should know a nation has failed
its youth if the choice is between staying here and facing war/racism.”
“The fact that Nigerians are willing to risk war and racism
shows how much politicians like you have failed,” @originalBNV wrote.
