HOUSE COMMITTEE HALTS UNIVERSITY OF ABUJA VC APPOINTMENT AMID LEADERSHIP DRAMA

The House Committee on University Education is pressing pause on appointing a new Vice-Chancellor for the University of Abuja until the ongoing leadership tussle is fully sorted.

Committee Chair Rep. Abubakar Fulata urges calm and dialogue to keep academic life smooth, stressing no disruption should affect the university’s calendar. Meanwhile, the committee is investigating land revocation concerns after the FCT Minister slashed 11,000 hectares from the university’s holdings—a move flagged by the Alumni Association. Acting VC Prof. Patricia Lar, nearing the end of her short tenure, awaits clarity as the drama unfolds.
