JUST IN: A 400L student of Biological Science department of University of Abuja has died. The student who is popularly known as AFOKE was killed on the spot by a hit-and-run driver in front of the Main Campus of the University along Giri-Airport road.

She was hit while trying to cross the road to get a cab going to Gwagwalada as she couldn't defend her final project work as a final year student.

The students have called blamed the department for keeping them in school until 7:30pm knowing that there was no transport means to leave the school. They have also called on FERMA and the school to provide speed bumps on the road and also complete the pedestrian bridge.

• Rest in peace Afoke. She died in the pursuit of knowledge.

UNIABUJA
Solicits Shekarau’s
Assistance over Completion
of 12 Abandoned Projects
The University of Abuja
(UNIAbuja) has urged the
Minister of Education, Malam
Ibrahim Shekarau, to assist
in the completion of 12
abandoned projects in the
institution.
The Pro-Chancellor of
UNIAbuja, Dr Victor
Folagbade, made the appeal
during the minister’s
inspection visit to the school
on Tuesday.
Folagbade said there was no
way the projects would be
completed if they were not
re-introduced in the budget,
adding that the school
needed a befitting Faculty of
Arts in the main campus.
On his part, the UNIAbuja
Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Michael
Adikwu, said that many
projects in the school were
lying comatose.
``Some building projects
have been abandoned;
these are largely those that
were started with the
money from appropriation
from annual budgets which
has reduced over the years.
``We will continue to seek
ways of improving our
infrastructure through Build
Operate and Transfer (BOT)
arrangement for which
many individuals have
indicated interest.
``If we get N2 billion to N3
billion, we will be able to
complete the structures; we
need more lecture halls to
increase access; we want to
internationalise the
university.’’
He appealed to the minister
to assist the university in
securing accreditation of
some courses, which he did
not identify.
Adikwu said that the
distance learning centre of
the institution would be re-
opened by November and
thanked the National
Universities Commission
(NUC) for bringing back the
centre on track.
Responding, Shekarau said
that UNIAbuja should be the
pride of the nation being
hosted by the FCT and
promised to do all he could
to turn around its fortunes.
He said that shortage of
funds was a multi-sectoral
problem, adding that under
the present administration,
there should be nothing like
abandoned projects.
``The Tertiary Education
Trust Fund (TETFund) is not
accepting anything like
abandoned projects; we will
do all we can to make sure
that the project sare
completed.
``On the issue of
accreditation of your
courses, I believe they will
be accredited if you meet
NUC’s requirements,’’
Shekarau said.
The visit was the first
inspection visit by the
minister since his
assumption of office. (NAN)

NEWS UPDATE:

• Minister of Education, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, has frowned on the high number of uncompleted projects at the University of Abuja,  saying he will probe the management of the institution over the abandoned projects. [ PUNCH ]

• Vice Chancellor, Prof. Michael Umale Adikwu has said that uncompleted projects in the Main-Campus would require N3bn to complete.

• VC, UNIABUJA has also urged the FG to assist the institution to enable it get accreditation for some courses in the school.
