Federal University Dutsin-Ma SUG President Issues Important Notice to Off-Campus Students

The Student Union Government (SUG) of Federal University Dutsin-Ma has issued a crucial advisory to students, particularly those residing off-campus within the Dutsin-Ma metropolis. In a statement released by the SUG President, Comrade Abdulkarim Sani Isah, students are strongly advised to avoid signing six-month rental agreements and instead opt for a full calendar year lease when securing accommodation.

Comrade Isah emphasized that opting for a year-long lease provides greater security and financial stability for students. He warned that six-month leases could expose students to sudden rent hikes, potential eviction, and exploitation by unscrupulous landlords who might take advantage of their limited options.
