The students reportedly faced disciplinary action after the video, in which they joked about their presence at a hospital, surfaced online and attracted widespread attention.
In the video, the students were heard saying, “No sick o, na Gen Z full hospital,” while the accompanying caption read, “No sick oo, nah Gen Z full hospital.”
NANS acknowledged that the students’ conduct was inappropriate and amounted to misconduct but urged the university management to replace the expulsion with a stern warning or other disciplinary measures.
The association said the students, who are undergoing nursing training that includes clinical postings and hospital-based learning, should be given an opportunity to continue their education under strict conditions.
NANS appealed to the university to show clemency, arguing that the punishment should be corrective rather than one that could permanently disrupt the students’ academic and professional careers.
The association also urged the affected students to learn from the incident and conduct themselves responsibly during future clinical postings.
Madonna University is yet to publicly indicate whether it will review the expulsion or grant NANS’ appeal.
