EBOLA: UNILORIN TO SCREEN STUDENTS
The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin,
Abdul Ganiyu Ambali, says all students will be screened for the Ebola Virus Disease before entering the campus.
Ambali stated this on Monday while unveiling preventive kits worth N1.2 million at the university’s health center.
“The procurement of
the anti-Ebola kits is part of the university’s
preparedness to tackle the epidemic headlong,”
the vice chancellor said.
The kits, he said, included face masks, boots,
hand gloves, automatic soap dispenser,
infrared thermometer and disposable bed
spreads. The vice chancellor commended
members of the institution’s Ebola Response
Committee for their foresight and prompt
response. Ambali, however, charged the
university’s health workers to be alert and
follow laid down procedures in the case of an
outbreak.
The university’s Director of Health Services,
Mary Ajiboye, who presented the equipment to
the vice chancellor, said the kits were for the
protection of staff and students.
“The committee will place the hand sanitize in
strategic locations on the campus such as the
Senate Building, faculties, walkways and
Unilorin FM station,” she said.
