Review KWASU land status, VC urges Kwara gov
Acting Vice Chancellor of the Kwara State University, Professor Shaykh-Luqman Jimoh, has appealed to the Kwara State government to urgently constitute a committee to review the land status of the university.
Speaking on Saturday at the 10th and 11th combined Convocation ceremony of the University, Jimoh drew the attention of the government to the massive encroachment on the land mass, ceded to the institution at inception by the state government for research and future expansion, by communities and individuals.
The VC urged Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq who is the visitor to the institution, to address the looming issue by constituting a Land Review Committee to review the status of the university's land mass
He said, “Currently, this land mass is being threatened by encroaching communities and individuals. We are sufficiently concerned about this especially as it can be a flashpoint of conflict between the University and communities and individuals.”
The Vice-Chancellor also drew the government's attention to the deplorable state of the road leading to the institution from Ilorin, lamenting that “access to the University was not smooth
He said, “There are bad portions on the road and a few culverts on the verge of collapse, adding that the road provides access to a growing number of vehicular traffic, not just to the University, but the numerous agrarian communities within that corridor.
Jimoh, who praised the state government and friends of the university for contributing to the successes that have been achieved, said the institution looks forward to always receiving their attention.
The Vice-Chancellor, while congratulating the graduands on their feat, noted that they have been well grounded on the need to be self-sustaining and also equipped with outstanding education.
Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq noted that KWASU has demonstrated zero tolerance for social vices such as examination malpractices, cultism, internet fraud, and drug addiction, among others, charging the students to be conscious of this and shun bad influences.
