He urged the students to report any lecturer, who violates the order to him, advising the students not to make themselves vulnerable to the lecturers by not studying hard.
Onuchuku said: “Anybody that forces you to buy textbooks or harasses you to pay money to pass an examination, report him to me. Your parents sent you here to study, do not allow it to waste.”

Vice-Chancellor revealed the institution’s plan to build perimeter fences around all female hostels in the institution, noting that the move was to consolidate the security of its students.
