in this institution. First and foremost is to focus on your studies. The main reason 

you are here is to acquire education, therefore make it your utmost priority".

"Avoid frivolities. You must also shun all forms of vices namely cultism, examination 

malpractice, extortion, hooliganism etc. We have zero tolerance for these profane 

acts and indulging in them attract severe penalties including expulsion. 


"May I passionately appeal to you to resist extortion by lecturers or even students under any guise. Report any such case to the Management. The Management has come

out with a dedicated phone line that will be for cases of extortion. This is in 

demonstration of our resolve to stamp out this dangerous practice.

"My dear students, be rest assured that the Management is strongly committed in 

ensuring that you have a successful and fruitful stay here in Federal Polytechnic

programmes we run in this polytechnic are accredited".

in place to renew the accreditation of some of the programmes whose 

accreditation validity will be expiring soon. We are also going to mount new 

programmes especially in engineering and the sciences. 

Management has ensured that there is security and sustainable peace in the 

Polytechnic so that students can concentrate on their studies without fear or danger of molestation.


I want to resound it that this polytechnic is a no breeding 

ground for cultism. We have a robust and highly effective security apparatus that 

knows their onus. You cannot evade them", Onyegbu warned.

that have been completed and many other on going projects all in the bid to create 

an enabling and conducive environment that will aid our students in attaining their
