Nursing students from the College of Nursing at Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital in Nnewi have organized a protest against the steep rise in their tuition fees. The protest took place on Tuesday and was captured in a video that has since gained traction on social media platforms. The students voiced their opposition by chanting phrases such as "We no go gree, reduce the school fees, we no go gree," while they marched and held up placards that displayed their grievances.

The College of Nursing is a vital part of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, a prestigious tertiary healthcare facility located in Anambra State, Nigeria. The fee hike has reportedly caught students by surprise, leading them to take action to demand a reconsideration of the increased financial burden placed upon them. As of the protest, there has been no official response from the college administration regarding the concerns raised by the students.

This protest highlights significant issues surrounding educational funding in Nigeria and the impact of rising tuition fees on students. With an increasing cost of education, many students may find it challenging to continue their studies, which could lead to a broader discussion about accessibility and affordability in higher education within the country. The outcome of this protest could have implications not only for the students involved but also for the future policies regarding tuition fees in Nigerian nursing colleges.
