Ebonyi State: Bill to Upgrade Akanu Ibiam Poly, Uwnan to University Passes 3rd Reading

A Bill to upgrade the Akanu Ibiam Poly Uwana to a University of Science and Technology has passed through the 3rd and final reading at the House of Representatives.

The bill is sponsored by Rt. Hon. Idume Igariwey, member representing Afikpo North/ Afikpo South federal constituency.

The House, last week, considered and approved the Report of the Committee on University Education, which had been saddled with the assignment. 

With this latest development, the House of Representatives has positively drawn the curtain on the legislative journey of this Bill. 

It is expected that by September, when the National Assembly resumes plenary from its annual recess, the bill will be transmitted to the senate for their concurrence.
