Cases of theft have been reported from different campuses; three cases at Kingsgate campus, one case at main campus and zero case at law campus this semester.

According to the head of security at Kingsgate, Mr Atubo James, thieves always target the second floor at Kingsgate campus because there are many students compared to the fourth floor. He says, thieves target where most people are because they are likely to be careless, that is why in Kingsgate, the security supervisor is subjected to stay in second floor.
