One of Nigeria’s nine new universities is ready to begin academic programmes. It is the Federal University, Kashere, Gombe State which has directed the institution’s pioneer students to collect their admission letters on April 16.
The registrar of the university, Dr Abubakar Aliyu-Bafeto, in Gombe on Sunday said academic activities would commence on April 30 at two pioneer faculties, the Faculty of Humanities, Management and Social Sciences, and the Faculty of Sciences.
The registrar said that each of the students must pay a N5,000 acceptance fee at any Guaranty Trust Bank and urged the students to report at the campus at Kashere village in Akko Local Government Area on April 30, adding that registration would start on May 1 and end on May 5.
