In another development, the Board also constituted investigative committee to take a comprehensive look at the results from the Department of Business Administration in the last three academic sessions and make recommendations that could assist in addressing the complaints  of wrong computation of results from the Department and set the record straight, going forward.  On the issue of Industrial Training, the Board further reiterated that on no condition should letters for  Industrial Training be issued before approval of results by the Academic Board. The Board also received the report on the completion of the comprehensive hostel renovation with satisfaction and further approved the proper labelling and official naming of the various hostel blocks after some identified personalities that have distinguished themselves in their own right and respective endeavors.The gesture in the wisdom of the Board, is to motivate students into seeing such personalities as role models who could spur them into good conduct that could be of immense benefits to them and the society.  The Rector used the occasion to restate the commitment of the Governing Council, Management and Academic Board to upholding the dignity of the Polytechnic through strict adherence to rules, just as he solicited support from all and sundry so as to achieve more for the institution.

There is hardly any ward in Kogi State except a few that did not experience violence.“Violence is not necessarily when people die, but in this case, people died.
