Share This Post

Living in a shared space like a hostel can be fun and liberating, but safety should always come first. At Rabiat Hostel in Ogbomoso, we take your security seriously — but it’s also important that you play your part.

Here are 6 essential safety tips for hostel living:

  1. Lock Your Room and Belongings – Always secure your valuables, even in trusted environments.
  2. Know Emergency Protocols – Be familiar with fire exits and hostel emergency contact numbers.
  3. Keep Personal Info Private – Avoid oversharing sensitive details with strangers.
  4. Build a Trustworthy Circle – Make friends but trust your instincts.
  5. Stay Clean and Organized – A tidy room reduces risks and enhances your safety.
  6. Report Suspicious Activity – Speak up if something feels off.

Our hostel is fully equipped with CCTV cameras, access-controlled entry, and attentive staff, but these tips will help you stay even safer.
