PAAU Enhances Security with Patrol Vehicles Against Cultism

Prince Abubakar Audu University (PAAU) in Anyigba, Kogi State, has taken significant steps to enhance security on its campus by donating two patrol vehicles to support security agencies in combating cultism and related crimes. This initiative was disclosed by Vice Chancellor Prof.

Salisu Ogbo Usman during a security stakeholders meeting held in the university council chamber. The meeting included members of the university community, security agencies, traditional rulers, and key stakeholders, focusing on strengthening security strategies.

Prof. Usman described the initiative as part of broader measures to reinforce safety and sustain peace within the academic environment for staff, students, and the host community.

The vehicles will be assigned to a joint security anti-cultism squad to intensify operations against cult-related activities and enhance routine patrols. Additionally, the university management approved the reconstitution of the student disciplinary committee to address misconduct and anti-social behavior, while a new committee will focus on counseling and rehabilitating students involved in cultism.

The Vice Chancellor reassured parents and guardians of the university's commitment to safety and acknowledged the support from Kogi State Governor Ahm Usman Ododo.
