Olatunji implored the students to stay away completely from any act of drug abuse, indecent dressing, cultism and the likes, saying that the Polytechnic has zero tolerance for these vices.

“If you are caught and found guilty of any of these vices, the Polytechnic will not desist to take the appropriate sanction, which may include expulsion,” he warned.
