This was contained in a press release issued by the association’s director of socials, Comrade Abdulakreem Rafat, which stated that: “NANS equally appealed for the total reversal of the recent hike in school fees and order for the reopening of the school immediately. Government should further strengthen the institution, its facilities and the teaching and non-teaching personnel.”
The student body further said: “We plead with the federal government to do the needful and release the result of the last interview conducted for the appointment of a substantive provost, which is long overdue.”
The Federal College of Veterinary and Medical Laboratory Technology, Vom, near Jos was closed down indefinitely on December 18th last year, following protests by students against school fees increments among others.
The college had in a circular signed by Dr. Chukwu O. Chukwu, for the acting provost, ordered the closure of the institution, saying it was necessary to prevent further break down of law and order.
The college further issued another circular on January 12th signed by its acting registrar, Baba Aliyu Umar, instructing the students to vacate their hostels.
