The final year students of the Department of Nursing Science of Osun State University have made the University proud in the recent professional examination for General Nurses held in May 2021. It will be recalled that the first two sets of Nursing students of the University raised the bar at the previous examinations by passing all the qualifying examinations for professional Nurses at the first attempt. The third set of Nursing Students is currently following the trail by standing tall even though the Council records 30% failure in the May 2021 Basic Nursing examination.

According to the result released by the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria, one thousand, seven hundred & ninety (1790) were successful in the examination representing 70% that passed.
The results released and sent to the University by the Council further state that all the Nursing Science students of Osun State University scored 100% in the General Nursing professional examination in May 2021.
The Provost of the College of Health Sciences, Osun State University, Professor Christopher Olutayo Alebiosu, while reacting to the outstanding success of these students, applauded the entire set, which recorded a 100% success rate.
“He remarked that this is the 2nd professional examination that our Nursing students will be participating in, and all of them made us proud. He attributed the enviable success of the students to the Management’s full support, exemplary leadership of the Vice-Chancellor, the commitment of the academic and non-teaching staff of the College of Health Sciences, the impactful teaching, the dedication of the students, peaceful environment and special grace of the Almighty God.
He gave kudos to all the previous coordinators & HODs of the Department, including Dr Adeleke NA, Mr Adesina K.A. and the current HOD, Dr Adeyemo MOA He, therefore, advised the students that made the University proud to remain focused and parade themselves as good ambassadors of the University,” Professor Alebiosu added.
