NADESSTU, in a statement by its National President, Shaka Emomine, at the end of an emergency meeting at Delta State Polytechnic, Ozoro, said the students were not happy with the development.
They declared that any further delay in the payment of the bursary may lead to students’ unrest in the state.

“The national leadership of the association will no longer stand any chance of losing or jeopardizing the trust conferred on us by our fellow students whom we were elected to serve and protect their interest.
“Therefore, the Delta State Government is hereby issued a two-week ultimatum to come up with the payment of the Delta State Students Bursary/Scholarships Award, otherwise, there will be a state wide protest from the students with its main target being the state capital, Asaba, with a magnitude of protest capable of bringing all commercial activities in the beautiful city to a standstill until the cries and supplications of the students are heeded to.”
The association also decried the fact that the student community was losing faith in the national leadership of the association over the issue and they will by all standards, carry out their threat as at when due if nothing urgently is done to address the situation.
