The circular which is now making the rounds was signed by the ministryās Director, Senior Secondary Education, Hajia Binta Abdulkadir, and confirmed by the Director of Press and Public Relations, Ben Bem Goong, on Friday.

āStudents who are involved in the practice find it difficult to settle down on serious studies. They become unruly and distract other students from achieving their goals.

āAll students of Federal Unity College should adhere strictly to the content of this circular. And Principals are advised to bring the content of this circular to the knowledge of all parents of the college.ā
