The management of the University of Abuja (UniAbuja) has announced that students seeking admission to the institution will now undergo drug tests.
Speaking at the school’s pre-convocation briefing on Wednesday, Abdul-Rasheed Na’allah, the varsity vice-chancellor, said intending students must undertake and present their drug test result before admission.
According to NAN, Na’allah said the exercise is important as a way to help students to be “free from drug abuse”.
The VC said any student who tests positive for illicit drugs will not be “rusticated but rehabilitated”.
