Students Lament Poor State Of Hostels In Nigerian Police Academy

Some cadets (students) of the Nigeria Police Academy, Wudil, Kano State have raised the alarm over the deplorable state of hostels in the institution.

They alleged that the poor state of their hostels has become a hindrance to their studies as they no longer have a conducive atmosphere for their academic activities.

SaharaReporters gathered that hostels of the institution located in Kano State lacked water supply, good toilets, and enough rooms to accommodate the students (cadets).

Some of the facilities are surrounded by overgrown bushes from where dangerous reptiles pose a danger to cadets on a daily basis.

An ASP cadet while speaking with SaharaReporters lamented the unkempt state of the environment around the hostels and the danger posed to their health and well-being.

He said, “A walk in the hostels where cadets stay will leave you with the impression that they are no longer in use or abandoned area because of broken and leaking pipes, filled soakaways are emptied by cadets themselves using buckets while the management is busy building helipads and other projects of less value.”

“Cadets wake up at midnight in search of water with jars and containers and on many occasions, cadets don’t turn out for activities due to the unavailability of water,” another ASP cadet said
