Health as we all know and will agree is wealth. Is this statement and saying through about the living conditions of the female students of kaduna polytechnic?

Findings have shown that presently the female hostel rooms designed for four persons is now occupied by nothing less than five persons.

Some female students moving into the hostel.

This development is becoming a thing of concern and worry for the student allocated to the various hostels. As it is now in the girls hostel nobody wants to be the fifth person allocated to any of the rooms because such person does not enjoy things like: wardrobe, bed space, reading angle etc.

According to Ruth a female student allocated to Abuja hall, the conditions of the hostel is not good enough for it to accommodate the numbers of people sent to it. And she called on the school management and rector to pay a visit to the hostel so that they can assess the level of damage and congestion in the various hostels. Thereby adopting a lasting solution to better the living conditions of the female students.

Another female hostel occupant from Lagos hall said: ” the hostel security is okay but we want them to look into the numbers of students allocated to each room so that everyone can have equal right to their space. She also said with the different health issues around the world congesting the hostel should be discouraged and more hostel Hall’s should be provided to accommodate more students willing to stay within the school.

However, the students gave kudos to the Rector and his team for good job they’ve been doing in school and ask that they should not relent as they have their full supports as students of this great institution.
