Precious, in a chat with our correspondent called on the Edo state Governor, Godwin Obaseki and human rights organizations to come to her aid.

 

 

 

 

 

 

She said; “Please, I need the public to join me in speaking out; I got admission into Edo State College of Nursing Sciences, I started lectures on a Monday, and by Wednesday they told me to leave the school that I’m not flexible enough, that they don’t want someone like me, all because I have a bent posture. I have a right to education and Edo State College of Nursing Sciences is taking it away from me,” she said.
