A heated confrontation unfolded live on News Central TV between Comrade Femi Adeyeye of the Take It Back Movement and the newly elected President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Akinteye Babatunde Afeez, popularly known as Babtee, over allegations surrounding the disruption of a protest in Ibadan, Oyo State, on Monday.

The clash occurred during a television interview focused on insecurity affecting students and teachers, particularly the recent abduction cases that have sparked protests across the country.

Adeyeye, a former National Publicity Secretary of the African Action Congress (AAC) and a member of the Take It Back Movement, openly accused Afeez and NANS members of attacking peaceful protesters during demonstrations held at the Bodija area of Ibadan.

The interview began with the anchor asking what NANS was doing concerning insecurity affecting students and teachers and whether the student body had slowed down in speaking against worsening insecurity in the country.
