The leadership of the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) Ekiti State Council has condemned the gruesome killing of a female nursing student of the Federal University, Oye Ekiti (FUOYE), Miss Deborah Modupe Atanda by yet to be identified persons.
Deborah Atanda, a 200 Level student of the Department of Nursing at FUOYE was found in a shallow grave within the school premises few days after she was declared missing.
In a statement jointly signed by the State Chairman, Comrade Kunle Oni, State Secretary, Comrade Olabisi Ayenioye and the State PRO, Comrade Olaoluwa Odunayo, the union described the incident as unacceptable urging the school authorities and security agents to fish out the killers and bring them to book.
According to the statement, it is callous, insensitive and wicked for anyone who could have been involved in her death hence such person or persons must not be allowed to go unpunished.
The statement sympathizes with the parents, family, colleagues and lecturers of the murdered student, saying losing a nursing student at this time that the country is in dare needs of professionals is not the best.
It prays God to console the parent of the deceased and grant them the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss with a call on the management of FUOYE to strengthen it’s security network to forestall unpalatable cases as such.
