NACRISS WW incumbent President and Vice President
Efio-Ita Nyok|16 September 2016
There is crisis ongoing in the apex students union body for all students of Cross River State origin, namely, National Association of Cross River State Students Worldwide (NACRISS WW). The crisis is such that there are two factional executive councils in the association with Presidents Caleb Obaji and Romeo Ojong Lawrence presiding over either of the NACRISS WW EXCOs.
Besides, aides to Cross River State Governor Ben Ayade have pitched tents with either of these parallel governments. For instance, the Secretary to the State Government, Mrs Banku and the Special Assistant on Students Affairs and Youth Mobilisation, Mr Michael Abuo have taken sides with the Comr Romeo Ojong Lawrence's NACRISS WW EXCO; whereas, the Commissioner for Education, Mr Asu Okang and the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Branding, Dr Dornclaimz Enamhe is standing by the Comr Caleb Obaji's NACRISS WW presidency.
In a recent interview with Mr Joseph Coco-Bassey, the President of Cross River State Leadership Academy, he contended that his perspective on the crisis stems from greed on some concerned parties. In his words, 'What I see as the problem in NACRISS WW today is greed. But, there is a move at the level of the Academy to address this logjam'. However, on the part of Comr Emmanuel Oko Ogar who incidentally is the Publicity Secretary of Young Democratic Party YDP in the state, he argues that the problem with NACRISS WW is known and prescriptions have been made without administration.
Comrade Ogar aired his mind through his social media account in a post titled: 'THE AILING NACRISS'. According to him, 'NACRISS WW shall be free from crises when she embraces Christ and shun cultism; when she chooses true gains of leadership rather than being cloaked, obsessed, engulfed and engrossed with viruses known as GRQ-S (Get rich quick-syndrome); PASA-S (Parasitic anthrax of special adviser-syndrome) and ABOU-S (Acute brucellosis of obscenity upheaval-syndrme)'. Ogar who contended that, 'Until NACRISS purges itself from these viruses and menace, she will not only dig her grave, she will equally conduct her funeral rites'.
Earlier on Ogar had opined that, 'NACRISS is seriously sick. We know the causes of the sickness. It has been diagnosed. Prescriptions have been given, but we refused to administer the medications'.
'We know that Nacriss has not changed her usual garment. She is always synonymous with oddities that are ultravires and immiscible with the ethics of students' unionism. She is as usual immerced in mess of misery mire', his conversation proceeded.
