The Kebbi State College of Nursing Science, Birnin Kebbi, has denied expelling its student, Rahama Saidu, for indulging in social media activities.
Miss Saidu, a popular Tiktoker and Instagram sensation was rumored to have been expelled by the school over her social media posts.
But the college dispelled the rumour, saying that Miss Saidu was expelled due to her failure to comply with the college rules and regulations.
According to the college, Miss Saidu was expelled from the school for failing her examination and refused to accept automatic repeat as enshrined in the school’s rules and regulations.
“According to the college rules and regulations, any student with 3 weeks’ absence from school or hospital without any genuine reason will automatically repeat that semester.
“Rahama Saidu failed exams 5 months ago, since then, she became absent from the school with no reason. She neither accepted the repeat, none of her query has been answered for several attempts which leads to her expulsion,” a viral statement released by the school revealed.
The statement, however, noted that the college does not know that Miss Rahama is a Tiktoker.
“Therefore, all the allegations labelled against the college by Rahama is false, baseless and mere accusations to tarnish the good image of the college which should be disregarded by the general public,” the statement added.
