The pact was signed by the university and the holding company at ABU, Zaria on Monday, April 8, 2024.
It will be funded through the collaborative efforts of TETFund and APPNL.
TETFund will provide the counterpart funding of 25 percent of the project cost under a special intervention framework to ABU while APPNL will provide 75 percent of the total cost.

The funds, under the agreement, will be used by APPNL to undertake the construction of the project and upon completion of the facility, APPNL will appoint a facility management entity to manage the structure for a period of 21 years after which control shall revert to ABU.

The parties involved in the agreement signed four legal documents in fulfillment of the project. They included Stakeholders’ Agreement, Deed of Lease, ESCROW Agreement, and Concession Agreement.
