The leadership of the Nigeria Medical Students Association, NIMSA, has lamented the Cross River State Government’s refusal to reach out to them following the loss of three of their members in a boat mishap.
“It’s not funny that up till now, three days after the unfortunate incident, no official or even the state government has reached out to us or even talked with the survivors.“We thank Vice Chancellor of University of Calabar, Professor Florence Obi, who has been motherly and touched over the tragic and traumatic experience,” Egba said.
A government official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said they would meet with them shortly after the preliminary steps they have taken and after the Secretary to the State Government has rounded up a meeting with the management of the resort by noon today.
