“Because this is an ICT school, we have quite number of ICT courses they (students) have to go through first before they start their courses. We usually screen out bad eggs after admission; that’s why social violence is very minimal here. Cultism on campus is zero and most of the students we admit are the serious ones’’, the rector said.

He added: “All the things we do about ICT on our campus, we do it ourselves. All the computer programmes that we run on our campus are written by my students and staff and there are so many of them. For example, our exam is hundred percent perfect because the biometric that we use is good and that makes impersonation reduced to zero.’’
