HANDWASHING, SANITIZER USE

As part of the measures to ensure strict adherence to all safety protocols, the university ensured that handwashing facilities including Veronica buckets have been placed at vantage points on our campuses.

Sanitizers, soap, tissue and other detergents have not been in short supply as authorities want to ensure that both staff and students regularly wash and sanitize their hands.

FACE MASK

The university as part of the measures in ensuring the wearing of face mask has distributed face masks to all staff members and requested unit heads to ensure all staff members wear them at all times.

COVID-19 MONITORING TEAM & AMBASSADORS

As part of steps to prevent an outbreak of the COVID-19, Management of the university has also set up a COVID-19 Monitoring Team and Ambassadors made up of both staff and students at all units/levels to offer rapid response to COVID-19 issues while ensuring strict adherence to all safety protocols at all times at the various levels/units.

Meanwhile, Management of the university is investigating the source of a false DAILY POST newspaper report of a “looming outbreak” which it describes as mischievous and misleading and will update the public in due course.

Thank you.
