She explained that the fumigation of the camp was carried out in two segments.
“The first segment, chemicals meant for the elimination of insects and microbes that might cause infection were used; while the second segment, chemicals targeted at rodents and reptiles were sprayed on every part of the camp,” she said.
Iruma listed other actions taken preparatory to the commencement of the orientation course to include: mowing of grass, scrubbing the hostels and camp officials’ quarters, arrangement of beds and mattresses, as well as, testing the serviced generating sets for pumbing water and supply of light.
