IAUE: Switch Off Electrical Appliances and Lighting Points at the Close of Work or Lectures - Mgt Cautions Students & Staff

I write to inform the University Community that it has been observed with dismay that some Staff do not turn off their electrical appliances and lighting points in their offices at the close of work or lectures.

This ugly habit is also being exhibited by some staff as well as students, who switch on the bulbs and ceiling fans in the classrooms and hostels and abandon the electrical appliances indefinitely. The recent fire incident in the female hostel is a case in point.

It is even worse if the ceiling fans, air conditioners, televisions, pressing irons are not turned off over the weekends or public holidays. This has huge financial implications on the University, apart from the exposure of the entire building to electrical fire outbreak from sensitive points.

Please take notice that from now onwards any staff, student or group of persons who fail to turn off any electrical appliance or bulbs after usage or cook in the hostel would be sanctioned.

By a copy of this notice the security men on patrol have been instructed to report the defaulters for disciplinary measure.
