The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has commended the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) for being a “driving force” behind the advancement of higher education in the country.

In a statement issued on Friday night, Saturday, Pedro Obi, NANS President, said under the leadership of Echono Sonny, the Executive Secretary of TETFund, significant strides have been made in addressing the pressing infrastructure needs of academic institutions.

“From modernizing facilities to enhancing research capabilities, TETFund has been a driving force behind the advancement of higher education in our nation,” Obi said.

“It is evident that without the crucial support provided by TETFund, our tertiary institutions would be left vulnerable and ill-equipped to meet the demands of contemporary education.

“Take away TETFund, and our universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education will go naked, deprived of the essential resources needed to thrive in an increasingly competitive global landscape.

“The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) stands firmly in solidarity with TETFund and its leadership. At this pivotal moment, we vehemently reject any form of distraction that may undermine the pivotal role of TETFund in advancing the educational infrastructure of our nation.

“We call upon all stakeholders to continue to lend their unwavering support to the leadership of TETFund, ensuring the effective delivery of its mandate for the betterment of our tertiary institutions and the collective progress of our nation.

“Now, more than ever, is the time to rally behind TETFund and safeguard the future of our tertiary education system.”
