The allegations against the Provost of the College of Nursing Science, Jalingo, Taraba State, have sparked significant concern, particularly among the students who are directly impacted by the institution’s management.


The students’ plea for intervention highlights serious claims, including, Decline in Academic Standards. The reported 8% pass rate in the November 2024 Nursing Council Examinations is alarming and suggests systemic issues within the institution.
Financial Exploitation. Allegations of imposing unnecessary financial burdens on students point to possible administrative mismanagement or corruption.

Infrastructural and Academic Deficiencies. Complaints about the lack of improvements in infrastructure and academic resources further underscore the challenges faced by students.
Transparency Concerns. Calls for the release of examination results for the past two years indicate a demand for accountability and openness in the administration’s operations.
The students’ fear of victimization is also a concerning aspect, as it suggests a lack of an open and safe platform for dialogue within the institution.

The state government’s intervention could be crucial in resolving these issues, ensuring accountability, and safeguarding the institution’s reputation and future.Public and stakeholder attention will be vital to ensure that the concerns raised by the students are thoroughly investigated and addressed.
