The Federal Polytechnic, Bida in Niger, has appealed for a police post to complement management’s efforts at securing the institution.
Its Rector, Dr Abubakar Dzukogi, made the appeal on Wednesday in Bida.
“We have officially notified the authorities about our request; we are optimistic that our request will be granted,” he said.
He said that the population of the students had gone past 15,000, and emphasised the need to improve the security situation in view of recent developments in the country.
The Rector explained that more security personnel were required to tackle internal and external security challenges.
“We often have cases of cultism, burglary and phone snatching; very often, too, we have miscreants coming into the institution. We need to check such evils.”
