PRESIDENT Bola Tinubu has approved a staggering commencement of academic activities of six out of the 14 new universities established in the last days of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
According to him, “There are very many, probably about a dozen of them, if not more than a dozen or 14, that’s the number and you know tertiary institutions are highly capital intensive, they need a lot of money, especially at that takeoff stage, for infrastructure, staff recruitment and all other needs.
The Minister affirmed that these institutions are strategically aligned with the key mandates and priorities of President Tinubu’s administration. “We’re starting with about six, two of each; two agric, two colleges of education and then two medicine.” Dr Mamman added.Imo: S'Court fixes Oct 31 to hear APGA's case against Gov Uzodinma
