UDUS CSO Warns Students:, No ID Card, No Entry into Lecture Halls

The Chief Security Officer (CSO) of Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto (UDUS), Mr. Abdullahi Gwandu, has cautioned students to always carry their Identity Cards (IDs) while on campus.

In a recent meeting with campus journalists, the CSO emphasized the importance of IDs in enhancing campus security and distinguishing UDUS students from outsiders.

According to the CSO, the university plans to instruct lecturers to allow only students with valid IDs to attend lectures. This measure aims to reduce insecurity within the campus and ensure a safer learning environment.

The UDUS Students' Handbook (2019 revised edition) clearly states that possession of University IDs is compulsory for students. The handbook outlines penalties for non-compliance, including punishment for students who refuse to provide their IDs when required to do so.

Students are expected to obtain their IDs from the Student Affairs Division upon payment of prescribed fees. The IDs serve as a vital form of identification, and students are required to present them when necessary.

The CSO's warning underscores the university's commitment to maintaining a secure campus environment. By enforcing the ID card policy, the university aims to prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing lecture halls and other facilities.
