He maintained that posterity would not forget useful contributions of all the people to safeguard the future of the students, warning that any culprit caught would be made to face the full wrath of law

“This is our alma mata, we cannot fold our arms while the students of the school or the school itself are lagging behind in terms of standard, security and needed infrastructures*, he Lawal said.
