Insecurity: University Of Maiduguri Safe For Learning – VC Tells Nigerians

Prof. Aliyu Shugaba, Vice Chancellor of the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID), has stated that Borno, particularly the State capital, Maiduguri, is now a safe place to learn.

This was said by the Vice Chancellor during an appearance on the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Forum in Abuja, where he advised prospective students not to be concerned about insecurity in the state.

He said that the security situation in Borno State has vastly improved.

While the State was undoubtedly seriously impacted by insurgents in the aftermath, he claimed that normalcy had returned to a significant extent.

“I know we have had our share of challenges as a state but the security situation has improved tremendously.

“With our resilience, our school now records the highest number of students in Nigeria and in view of that we have worked significantly on our infrastructure to accommodate the number.

“For instance we have put up mega halls with 500 to 700 students capacity,” he said.
