Rector charges polytechnic community leaders on security

Published by

The Rector of Federal Polytechnic, Idah in Kogi state, Dr. Yahaya Baba Usman, has charged the polytechnic community leaders on the need to partner with the polytechnic management in order to secure and protect the properties of the institution as well as combat crime.

He gave the charge while speaking with the community.

The Rector who spoke through the Deputy Rector (Admin.) Engr. Sunday Apeh at the multipurpose hall of the institution, frowned at the unauthorised climbing over the polytechnic fence by members of the polytechnic community, illegal dumping of refuse at the second gate and entry of heavy-duty vehicles on campus which mostly leads to the destruction of roads.

He urged the community leaders to sensitise their subjects to be law-abiding citizens as anyone caught, and found guilty will be prosecuted appropriately.

The community leaders drawn from Ojowu-Afu, Akpogu, Ajaja, Okenya, Amanyi, Oko-Epete and Uwowo communities, who spoke in one voice pledged their support and loyalty to the Rector in the fight against crime which has become the order of the day in recent time.

The Polytechnic Security Consultant and the Chief Security Officer of Thunderbolt Security Watch were with the Deputy Rector during the briefing.
