Bornu State College of Nursing suspends over 30 students for refusing to welcome President Buhari during his visit to Bornu State last week

About Thirty students of the Bornu State College of Nursing and Midwifery has been suspended for refusing to welcome President Muhammad Buhari during his visit to the state last week.

A staff who reported in anonymity said:

"Thirty of the students were suspended, not one. I don’t know when it now became compulsory to go and greet the President in the sun. Even we staff members were forced to go and welcome him,” 

It was earlier revealed that on June 17, Bornu state governor, Babagana Zulum, paid N350 million to mobilise the crowd for the visit of Buhari to the state.

It had been exposed that the governor considered the spending necessary to ensure that the Nigerian leader was not booed during his official visit to the state on Thursday because of the massive insecurity in the state which his regime has failed to handle.
