ANNOUNCING THE TAKE OFF OF THE UNIVERSITY'S SECOND PARK

In view of the current economic situation of the country and attempt to further reduce the burden place on students by highly monopolized transportation services (to and fro) on our campus, we are pleased to inform our colleagues that arising from our interaction with the University Management team, the idea of having second park is now to take off.

As a way of regulating the market, the Students' Union interacted with the University Administration to make operational the second park at the University Gate from which students can take buses or cabs to various areas on campus.

The take off which will commence today, October 28, 2024 with Marcopolo buses at N100 will route through Staff Quarters, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, and down to the present school park in the morning till evening. Other business partners to join in operating from this park will have to be formally registered by the school, have such vehicle branded in University colour and prices regulated for operation within the campus.

We encourage our colleagues to take advantage of this initiative in easing transportation burdens as we applaud the University Administration for their timely support during this challenging time.

We reaffirm our commitment to enhancing the welfare and wellbeing of all Smart Unilorites.

PERSONAL SAFETY AND SECURITY TIPS FOR ALL SMART UNILORITES

Smart Unilorites,

Personal Security measures as listed below aim to delay, warn or deter possible crime. These are additional measures meant to protect you from any form of harm.

Please, adhere strictly to the following security advice:
- Wearing Students Identification Card (I.D. Card) always is important for easy identification.
- Take time to know an Association before you join it. If in doubt, check with Student Affairs Unit.

08038667646, 08035675859, 07068110835, 08035032472.
- Do not leave credit alerts on your phone. It could make you a target of kidnapping or it could be an easy way for fraudsters to empty your account.
- Do not allow anyone to use your account or email for a third party transaction.
- Do not use ATMs at remote places at night, as you could be exposed to attack, robbery or kidnapping.
- Lock your door whenever you are leaving your room (even for a short time). Always lock your door when resting or sleeping.
- Do not leave your wallet, purse, credit card, cash, or other valuables in the open.
- Never loan your student ID Cards to anyone. If you misplaced it, report to the Division of Student Affairs and the Security Division immediately.
- Tell someone where you are going and when you can be expected or return.
- Always walk or jog in a familiar area and use well-lit path. Avoid dark areas.
- Know your surroundings. If you suspect you are being followed, run in a different direction; go to the other side of the road or run to an area with illumination.
- Never leave your laptop computer, textbooks, cell-phone, backpack, purse, or other valuables unattended or out of your sight in common areas.
- Avoid night travels or journey and board vehicles only in approved parks.
- Choose your company or associates wisely to reduce your threat profile, as you might be exposed to threats through bad company.
- Do not walk alone, especially at night or before the day fully breaks, move in groups because there is a security in number.

We reaffirm our commitment to ensuring the welfare and safety of all Smart Unilorites.
