\u201cMy advice to the students is that, they have to be disciplined. They need to be studious and know why they are here. The priority for them being here is to study so they need to study diligently. We also encourage them to study in groups as this will help them share ideas and discuss issues. We also warn them that they should not absent themselves from lectures\u2026\u201d He later added in an exclusive interview with Citi News.<\/p>\n
