"It is worthy of note that Rt.Hon.Goodluck Opiah from IMO State while assisting Mallam Adamu Adamu as Senior minister saw to the establishment of seven Polytechnics across the country with thirty five private universities issued licences, commencing academic activities for human capital development."
