In another news, the Deputy Provost, College of Health Science and Technology, Gusau, Halliru Mande has warned that the Institution would not tolerate any student with indecent dressing, warning students to always present themselves decently.
Mande gave the warning while answering questions from newsmen in his office.
He tasked the new students to comply with the rules and regulations of the college, particularly the dress code and other school rules as well as values.
He noted that indecent dressing begins at home because most parents do not care to monitor what their children are wearing, saying that going to school alone can never train children properly.
“There are some things that teachers can do but not all, teachers can try their best and leave the rest for the parents. No educated parent can expect the school to do everything for their children.
Halliru also called on parents and guardians of students to ensure prompt payment of their ward’s fees.
