The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) elects Akinteye Babatunde Afeez, a student of Olusegun Agagu University of Science and Technology (OAUSTECH), as its new national president. Multiple reports say the election follows the successful conclusion of the NANS 2026 national convention. One outlet states the convention takes place at the Old Parade Ground in Abuja.
In the announcement of his election, Akinteye Babatunde is reported to promise unity among members and to continue advocating for the welfare and interests of Nigerian students. The reports describe him as emerging as the new president from within the student body, representing an Ondo State university.
Across the coverage, there is agreement on the identity of the elected NANS president, the role of the 2026 national convention in the process, and the broad pledges focused on student welfare and internal cohesion. Further details on the other outcomes of the convention and the full list of elected officers are not provided in the included reports.
