Attention of the Polytechnic Authority has been drawn to a  malicious video which has gone viral on facebook that the Governor, His Excellency, Mall. AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq visited the Polytechnic and was being disgraced out of the institution. The Management wishes to state categorically that neither the Governor nor any of his aids was in the Polytechnic. Thus, the video which was tagged with the Polytechnic name is the hand work of the enemies of the institution that want to soil its good image and drag it in the mud. Please note that the Polytechnic students who  are presently on holiday are law abiding and good citizens of state who cannot be used as political thugs by politicians. Therefore, the Polytechnic Management wishes to call on members of the public to always verify the authenticity of anything tag with the Polytechnic name before  circulating.  Thank you Signed Halimat Garba PRO
