The Management of Bayero University Kano says any planned protest by students of the institution over the death of their colleague will be viewed as anti-progress and met with decisive action.
The Secretary of the University, Lamara Garba, issued the warning in a statement on Sunday, following a planned protest by students of the institution over the death of a 200-level student in the Department of Accounting, on Saturday.
The deceased, Kamaluddeen Moshood, died at the National Orthopedic Hospital Dala, Kano, following injuries he sustained after being hit by a fast-moving vehicle outside the university.
The statement said the driver of the vehicle was apprehended after the Vice-Chancellor had directed the Dean of the Students Affairs to visit the scene and take all necessary action.
“The University has done everything possible in order to save young Kamaluddeen. The University will not, therefore, condone any act of uncivilized behaviour whatsoever which will disrupt the peace on our campuses. Any student(s) caught doing so will be decisively dealt with, ” the statement said.
“Any breach of this warning will be viewed very seriously by the University management. All seriously minded students are advised by this announcement to face their studies and prepare for the forthcoming second-semester examination which is just around the corner. To be forewarned is to be forearmed, for a word is enough for the wise.”
