He further buttressed that the institution which has been in existence for nine years had never recorded any case of student unrest or violence due to the measures put in place to test the behavior of the students before being admitted into the institution.

“The university is free of cultists, we can assure the parents. The institution is secured with both internal and external security. The university had secured the combined service of  the Nigerian Police, Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, Directorate of State Security and other security agencies to maintain peace and order in the university”, he stated.
