The Minister of Education also presented a memo for the award of contract for the construction and furnishing of the extension of the University of Ibadan library.
“The memo, which was approved, is at the cost of N532 million with a completion period of 48 weeks,’’ the minister said.
Mr Mohammed hinted that the memo was well received because of the need to extend the library facility in the university.
He said that for many years, the library had needed real extension, given the surge in students’ population.
