“In all, the university has received about seven billion Naira (N7,000,000,000.00) in intervention from TETFund between 1999 and now.

Speaking further, the pro-chancellor called for a waiver to access the 2021/2022 TETFund’s allocations to enable the university address its challenges as well as special intervention on the institution’s library that was recently touched by heavy storm.

“Therefore, and further to the level of completion of the above listed projects, we hereby appeal to you to grant us a waiver to allow the university to access the 2021 and 2022 annual allocations to enable us to proceed with the projects tied to those allocations.
