Maduka University Dismisses False Claims About Bandits Settlements Near Campus, Clears the Air on death of Nursing Student

Maduka University Dismisses Sponsored False Claims About Fulani Bandit Settlements Near Campus, Clears the Air on death of Nursing Student.

Maduka University has observed with concern the circulation of a video claiming the presence of Fulani bandit settlements allegedly located near the university. These claims are completely false and a continued attempt in the last 3 years, by detractors to spark fear among potential students, parents, and the community.

The video in question inaccurately suggests that criminal elements operate in the immediate vicinity of the university campus. We wish to categorically state that Maduka University is safe and secure. The campus remains fully protected by appropriate security measures, and there is no basis for the fear being spread.

We urge the public to disregard this false alarm in its entirety. The university continues to operate normally, with students, staff, and visitors enjoying a secure and conducive learning environment.

Maduka University remains committed to the safety and wellbeing of our students, staff, and the surrounding community and will continue to liaise with relevant security agencies to ensure that the campus remains secure.

We call on all members of the public to remain calm, ignore baseless rumours, and report verified information through official channels.

The death of our Nursing Student – setting the record straight

We also consider it important to address the false and damaging reports circulating online about the unfortunate death of one of our students. Much of what has been shared is completely untrue, and we owe the public an accurate account of what happened.

First, she was brought to our medical centre already in an unhealthy condition, and she arrived through our hospital ambulance, not on foot or by friends as has been speculated. At no point did we administer diclofenac injection to her. That claim is entirely false.

When she arrived at about 9:30 p.m., our Doctor on Duty immediately evaluated her. We carried out the appropriate investigations, administered the necessary medication, and made a working diagnosis in line with our emergency-care procedures. She responded well to treatment at that stage and was placed under continuous monitoring with full nursing attention throughout the night.

However, at about 4:00 a.m., her condition changed suddenly. Our nurses detected the deterioration right away and promptly alerted the doctor on call. We acted quickly: she was transferred in our 24-hour ambulance to another Hospital for expanded emergency management.

The story that the doctor acted as the ambulance driver is false. We have a dedicated ambulance service with trained personnel, and they were the ones who handled the transfer. That allegation is misleading and does not reflect what happened.

It is also important to note that she had a concealed chronic medical condition which was not disclosed prior to the emergency. This underlying condition significantly contributed to the complications that followed.

We understand the pain her family and friends are feeling, and we share in the grief of losing such a young, promising student.

However, the circulating reports suggesting negligence, wrong medication, or abandonment are false and do not represent the professional actions our medical team took.

We remain committed to providing the highest standard of care for all our students and staff and will continue to cooperate with the family as they process this painful loss. We pray God to give the family enough strength to bear the irreparable loss. It is very unfortunate that, just to continue demarketing the school, someone would go to press with this painful story without questioning the school medical team that was involved.
By His grace, we are determined, and we shall only get better in all areas.

Signed: Management.
