Governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma, has reiterated his determination to return Imo State University to its past glory, noting that it is a task he must accomplish.
The governor made the remark when he paid a facility tour to the university on Thursday in the company of senior government officials.
While on the inspection of key facilities at the university, Governor Uzodimma thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for approving the construction of the on-going male hostel by NDDC, as well as the TETFUND projects to be used as hostels for female students in the university.
The governor said it was heartwarming that the projects were available in the university and would go a long way in ensuring that his vision of accommodating the students in an environment where they would be effectively monitored and supervised had become a reality.
He said a firsthand assessment of the facilities in the school afforded him the opportunity to also look at the challenges and how to deal with them.
The Governor, therefore, on behalf of Imo State Government thanked President Muhammadu Buhari, Tetfund and NDDC for obliging the state of the facilities at IMSU and assured that it was the responsibility of government to make judicious use of the them.
“Government will do her best to make the school habitable and ensure that by the next session students will occupy all the hostels,” he said.
