Delta Nursing Student Landed In Trouble Over Anti-Remi Tinubu Chant By Colleagues

The Delta State College of Nursing Sciences, Agbor, has queried a student nurse, Osato Edobor, over what it described as “malicious act” of posting unofficial response to the song welcoming First Lady Remi Tinubu to the school, on TikTok.

This arose following the visit of the Wife of the President to the institution on Tuesday as part of the Renewed Hope Initiative Health Programme and distribution of 10,000 Professional Kits.

During the event students were expected to chant “Na our mama be this o, we no get another one” in response to a song by the Master of Ceremony to welcome the First Lady.

However, a section of the students instead responded with “Na your mama be this oo ehh…,” an apparent rejection of Mrs Tinubu.

Reacting to the video’s circulation, the school authorities issued a disciplinary query to the student nurse, accusing her of engaging in a “malicious act” of unauthorised recording and posting of the footage on social media.

The query, dated March 27, 2025, was signed by the Provost, Mrs. Evbodaghe Rita Ogonne.

It stated: “It has come to the notice of the school authority that you, Student Nurse Osato Edobor, on the 25th of March, 2025, during the official visit of the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, at Dome Event Center, Asaba, for the Renewed Hope Initiative Health Programme and distribution of 10,000 Professional Kits (Crocs and Scrubs) to Midwives in each Geopolitical Zone of Nigeria South South Zone, was found to be engaged in a malicious act of recording/singing and posting an unofficial response to a song during the arrival of the First Lady (found on your TikTok Page).

“This is a punishable offence as enshrined in the Student Handbook under standardised disciplinary action for some punishable offences No. 8, Page 21.”

The school directed Edobor to provide a written explanation in triplicate within 24 hours, justifying why disciplinary action should not be taken against her.
