The management of Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) has advised new students to stay away from night parties after their matriculation.

Joe Ejiofor, spokesman for YABATECH, gave the counsel in a statement on Thursday in Lagos.

Mr Ejiofor said such gatherings could expose the newly admitted students to unpredictable situations that might lead to danger.

The school noted that the safety and academic progress of all students are top priorities of the institution’s management.

“As part of the management’s commitment to your well-being and success, I would like to bring to your attention an important matter regarding late-night matriculation parties,” said the statement.

It added, “While it is understandable that campus life provides numerous opportunities for socialising and building connections, we must remind you of the potential dangers associated with attending parties at odd hours.

“You are, therefore, warned in your interest to stay away from any night parties planned after matriculation.”
