The pioneer Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof. Umar Adam-Katsayal, disclosed this in an interview in Katsina. The vice-chancellor announced that the approval was conveyed in a letter dated October 18, and signed by the commission’s acting Director, Academic Planning, Abubakar Girei. “The acting Executive Secretary has considered and approved the establishment of full-time mode of the programmes to be run in the Main Campus of the University with effect from 2023/2024 session,” the letter stated.
