the move would address admission gap.
He commended the assembly for its continued
support to the institution, and gave assurance to
continue to initiate good policies and
programmes for lecturers and students.
“We are maintaining the act establishing the
university that said that 80 per cent of every
admission of the institution should be given to
indigenes while 20 per cent should be for non-
indigenes,” he said.
“We will continue to do our best to maintain
standard and to ensure that the standard of
education in this institution is improved.

and it was based on the facilities on ground.

for giving adequate attention to educational
advancement and infrastructural development in
this institution, and I call for its sustenance.

Fund (TETFUND) for keying into education
projects that had direct bearing on the lives of
the university community.
He said that special intervention from TETFUND
had not only changed the physical structure of
the university, but its academic activities.
