Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre is set to organise leadership training for members of the student union executives nominated from various universities and tertiary institutions nationwide.
Director-general of the centre, Mr. Yusuf Adamu, speaking when the newly inaugurated national executives paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja, stressed that participants numbering 1,850 would be chosen from various universities, colleges of education, polytechnics and monotechnics.
He observed that although about 5-6 million Nigerians benefited from the various leadership training programmes of the centre, the impact of the training has not been fully felt due to distortions within the system.
Adamu advised the newly inaugurated national executives of NANS, led by its president, Baballe Bashir, to run on all inclusive administration.
He charged the NANS leadership to always toe the path of dialogue by exploring all remedies and channels of communication within the rules and regulations guiding the union and the larger society.

He stressed: "For you to succeed, you should be humble, always listen to the voice of reason and pursue the path of dialogue as enshrined in the rules and regulations guiding NANS".
Earlier, the president of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Baballe Bashir, said that his administration shared the same vision with the centre, adding that the purpose of the visit was to explore means of establishing an enduring partnership with the centre.
He decried the negative image of Nigerian students and institutions of higher learning as a testing ground for cultism and other anti-social behaviours, adding that the immediate task before his administration was to reposition NANS as partners in progress.
