Corona virus also known as Covid’19 pandemic has introduced us to different ways of living life and being cautious of what happen around us. This virus is not just for one continent,race,religion but a general thing that doesn’t respect class or status of the victim.
Nigeria is not left out of this situation has it had to go on total lockdown of all activities to curtail the spread of the virus. In this regards schools and other institutions were under keys and locks and for about 7months schools could not open as the population involved is not something to overlook as nothing in the spread of the virus(Covid 19).
After many consultations and reports by the Presidential task force monitoring the pandemic in Nigeria, it was agreed that schools can now open by following the PTF Covid 19 protocol. Kaduna polytechnic just like other institutions of the federation put plans together and a date for resumption was announced and it was put into phases and batch.
The compliance of student and staff to the new era of the use of facemask and other PTF protocol not much followed even with the strict enforcement put in by the school management at the school main gate and hostels. student’s only hang it to their ears as a pass but not to curtail the spread of the virus. some students and staff are even seen walking around the school premises without one. Washing of hands and keeping social distance Is not adhere to as enforced by PTF for all schools.
Some students of the institution who spoke to lizzylookgood in anonymity said this trend can only be enforced with total compliance if the lecturers and other staff of the institution can lead by example of always coming to class with a mask,sanitizer and teaching in a class with proper social distancing. Another student said the school needs to provide all that both staff and students need to obey this protocol regularly.
A call to students of kaduna polytechnic even as they resume for next batch of phase1 Monday 30th November 2020, is that they should follow all laid down guidelines to control and stop the spread of Covid’19 and remain safe always.
