“I have held meetings with all relevant authorities as it pertains to security and going forward, proactive measures have been put in place to ensure that there is no repeat of unwholesome activities that could truncate the peace we enjoy here.
“Arrests have been made and more will be made as the police together with their sister security agencies are on the tails of those who are trying to undermine the smooth running of this administration.
“I assure you that with all that with has been put in place, the Polytechnic is secured and our staff, students and guests are safe from any threat.” He said.
