ENUGU – No fewer than 94 students of the University of Nigeria Nsukka,UNN, have cried out to relevant authorities to intervene in the impasse subsisting between the school management and Medical Rehabilitation Technical Board of Nigeria,MRTBN.
The students who graduated since last year from the Medical Rehabilitation Department, held a peaceful protest, Wednesday, at the Enugu campus said their licences for induction which is long over due, was being delayed over administrative standoff between the school and MRTBN.
Chanting and marching round the Faculty Building,carrying placards with inscriptions that reads:”Our Internship have been denied because we do not have license, UNN and MRTBN,please set us free,We are trapped,stagnated and helpless, After collecting our N5M,no license,no induction,no job” the protesting students alleged that they paid N50,000 each for the license but to avail.
The students who spoke through their leader Mr. Ifeanyi Uwaegbuonu said,”We were told to pay N50,000 each for our induction which we did. Since last year till now, we have not received any information concerning our license which has hamstrung our induction.
“We have laid our grievance to various relevant authorities but to no avail. From our efforts at MRTBN,we discovered that there is an administration problem between the school and the Board.
“We have been denied access to write our internship exams at various centres because we do not have license. All the places we went for internship turned us down. They referred to us as quacks.
“It was during our efforts that we found out that the problem between MRTBN and the school is that the Board said a Physiotherapist should be the Head of Department instead of a Medical Doctor that we have now as HOD.”
