She said the students’ continuous “stay at home is very worrisome to us mothers. It makes them idle, redundant and therefore vulnerable to all forms of violence and negative tendencies.

“We’re calling on Federal Government and ASSU to please end the strike and reopen our universities so that our children will be fully engaged. 

“Incessant crises in our educational institutions pose a big threat to national security”.
