Nigerians were moved to tears at the kind gesture of the alumni of the University of Jos who, earlier this week, arrived in Bakana in Rivers state to visit a former classmate who had been living with a mental illness for years. The said classmate, Mr Minabelem Hilary, had become mentally unstable during the course of his Master’s degree.
