As part of measures to avert a reoccurrence of the ugly incident, the Vice Chancellor announced that the university management has adjusted lecture periods to hold from 9am to 4pm to enable students go back to their places of abode on time and advised students to always strive to observe security tips and avoid traveling at odd hours.
