Bauchi Polytechnic Orders School Closure

The management of the Federal Polytechnic Bauchi has ordered that academic activities in the institution be halted after an invasion of the male students’ hostel.

Kasimu Salihu, the institution’s registrar, said in a statement that the invaders carted away the students’ belongings and injured two of them. Reacting to the issue, students protested at the institution’s gate, urging the school authority to intervene.

The registrar expressed, “While management acted immediately, with all principal officers and management staff showing up to address the students and the situation, it has been established that hoodlums who do not mean the students and the institution well had taken over what was meant to be a peaceful protest.” Following the protest takeover, the school management gave the students two hours to leave the school premises until further notice.
