The Medicine and Surgery student was duly elected, becoming the first female to occupy the position in the 49-year history of the institution

Meanwhile, students, friends and well wishers have been sending congratulatory messages to Ms Pwajok on her historic win.

“Congratulations on your historic win! FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF JOS STUDENT UNION GOVERNMENT. May your reign be blissful!,” One Dakak Christopher wrote. 

“You have made history as the first female SUG president. You have done us proud. You are a fighter and a very resilient one at that. Despite all odds and the opposition, God has crowned your effort. Appreciation to all those who worked hard to make this possible,” another message read.

They stated this at a press conference in Kano on Tuesday where they read the outcome of an earlier meeting of the coalition they had in Jigawa state.

Addressing the conference on behalf of the coalition, Sadi Garba Sa’id of the Bayero University Kano said “The coalition has unanimously agreed on the review of the ASUU demands. The coalition is giving both parties ultimatum of one week to resolve themselves or else we the Nigerian students will move to the roads and make them our classes”

They further stated that they will not accept any hike in the registration fees while calling on the government to waive the fees because of the pandemic which has caused economic devastations.

“The coalition will not tolerate any form of hike in registration fees or the induction of tuition fees.

“The government should waive registration because of the pandemic which has seriously affected the economic status of students, parents and guardians,” they declared.

The coalition also called for a review of the National Youths Service Corps (NYSC) age limit as the lingering ASUU strike might have affected the chances of some of the students to participate in the scheme.

“NYSC age limitation should be revised owing to the fact that the lingering ASUU strike and COVID-19 pandemic may have crippled some students’ chances of participating in the scheme,” they demanded.

The coalition further condemned the alarming rate of rape and kidnapping across the country and therefore called for a prompt action by government.

They also demand that education should be given priority in the country for which they called on the government to also provide quality education in primary and secondary schools.

The coalition further called for the introduction of skill acquisition and internship programs to the students of tertiary institutions across Nigeria while they also called for transparency in respect of federal and state scholarship schemes.
