The management of Maryam Abacha American University of Nigeria has ordered the immediate closure of Al-Ansar Indabo female students’ hostels located at Hotoro and UDB Road in the Kano metropolis over safety and disciplinary concerns.
A statement issued by the university’s Vice President, Campus Life, Dr Hamza Garba announced the withdrawal of its approval for the use of the hostels following reported violations of its code of conduct.
The statement said the decision was taken as part of MAAUN’s efforts to ensure the provision of safe, secure, and morally upright accommodation for its students.
It said the hostels failed to comply with university regulations guiding the operation of private student accommodation.
It reads: “I am directed by the management to write, inform, and bring to the attention of our esteemed parents and students that the university has withdrawn its approval for Al-Ansar Indabo female students hostels located at UDB Road and Hotoro.”;;
The university, therefore, directed all affected students to vacate the hostels immediately after the conclusion of the current semester examinations and warned them against further association with the facilities for their own safety and security.
It said Management is working closely with relevant security agencies to ensure total compliance with the directive.
