Health as we allow know is wealth. Is this saying and statement true to those who occupy the femlae hostel of kaduna polytechnic? The answer according to this report is NO.
During a cross interview session with some of the hostel occupant, it was discovered that each of the hostel rooms were designed to accommodate just fours persons but that’s not the order in the allocation anymore. As the female hostel is meant to occupy five at a time. This situation the occupant see as a threat to healthy living in the hostel. Thus making every occupant open to any kind of health risk.
One of the hostel occupant Abuja hall, Ruth said:” this our female hostel as been in a very bad shape which we have been asking that the school management do something about it but instead they add to the problem by adding more occupant without any repairs. I see this as a major health risk because the rooms are mostly stuffy and not conducive most of the times”.
Fatimah from Lagos hall also shared her view with me:” my first call is to the Rector, he should pay a visit to these hostels and see for himself. We cannot pay same hostel fees and some of us live as squatters in a place we paid equal money for. When you’re allocated the last person in the room(5th) automatically you don’t have a bed space, wardrobe, study angle etc. Which is not suppose to be so. Please the Rector should take a quick action on this, God forbid Corona virus and the likes she added.
