He said the call became imperative so as to usher development to the university, noting that the hostel projects embarked upon in 2008 by OSOPADEC had been abandoned, while the NDDCVhostel building began in 2010 had been stopped.

According to him, he had approached both institutions to appeal to them but was told that there no funds yet to complete the projects. Speaking on the convocation, he disclosed that about  573 graduands would be conferred with various degrees during the first convocation coming up on March 21.
