We have stamped out cultism, kidnapping on campus – Kogi poly rectors

The authorities of the Federal Polytechnic, Idah, Kogi State, have said that the institution has stamped out cultism and kidnapping via proactive measures five years ago.

The Rector of the institution, Dr Danjuma David Baba, disclosed this to Daily Trust in Idah on Thursday while marking the first inaugural lecture of the institution since its establishment 45 years ago.

He said, “In the last five years there have not been cases of cultism and kidnapping on the campus. We achieved this feat through proactive measures and having our ears to the ground, including using other devices I’m not ready to disclose.

“In the last of such attempts by a cultist group, we nipped it in the bud, and since then, they have relocated from the institution.”
