Stakeholders of the National Union of Izon-Ebe Students, NUIS, in Western Zone have issued a one-week ultimatum to the Comrade Simeon Duoduo-led National Executive Council to organize an electoral convention in a location in the zone.
In a congress held on Monday 3 May, the stakeholders say the move is to allow Comrade Simeon and his fellow executives hand over power to a new leadership, as his tenure in office has long elapsed.
According to the Stakeholders, the ultimatum became necessary following the lackadaisical attitude the incumbent President has exhibited towards organizing a National Convention, or to hand over power for that matter.
