“I want to use this opportunity to commend the state government for donating 65 hectares of land to JIWIS for a private university.
“And today we are going to collect the document from the Emir of Hadejia on behalf of the state government.
“After collecting it then we will set up an implementation committee which will come up with the amount to be expended on building the university.
“The committee will also come up with courses to be offered by the university, among other things,” he said.
The national chairman pointed out that siting the university in Jigawa would attract patronage from other states, particularly Northern states because of its location.(NAN)
