Kefas gave the directive when he paid an unscheduled visit to the state university to assess the state of the institution.

According to the governor, it became imperative to take the decision as the subsidy removal has made some of the students unable to pay their fees.

During his visit, the governor discovered that 53 courses offered in the institution are without accreditation, hike in school fees, and a poor state of the student hostel.

Also, he demanded a report on why some graduates of the institution do not go for NYSC or law school when he met the management of the institution.
