"You see some lecturers missing lectures, some going late to work. In fact, it has become a habitual recurrence. "
Continuing, he stressed that there was an urgent need for all staff to imbibe the new ways of doing things, rather than the old tradition where staff decide when they go to work or carry out their assignments.
He charged Deans and Heads of Department to lead by example and show a high level of productivity, integrity, credibility, and capacity.
On indecent dressing among students, he implored the teaching staff to always check the students, especially the females, and ensure that they were properly dressed before allowing them to receive lectures .
Commenting on the level of security on campus, the Registrar tasked the security personnel to be more proactive and dynamic in a bid to arresting criminal elements who disguise as students to perpetrate Evil.
