According to him, inspite of the financial challenges occasioned by the Covid 19 pandemic, IKPEAZU was still executing infrastructure and other democracy dividends.
He said only a man with managerial acumen like IKPEAZU could have been paying salaries as well as meeting other obligations of government.
Although he acknowledged that salaries were the right of workers, Nto argued that some states could not pay for December because of financial constraints.
The Provost expressed appreciation to the Governor for approving two months salary for ASCETA, saying it was the first time the college Staff were celebrating Christmas with their December salaries.
He assured the governor that with the reposition of the college, ASCETA was poised to playing its role as the plank of the education for employment policy of the state government.
The Provost therefore enjoined the college workforce to reciprocate IKPEAZU’s gesture by recommiting to quality teaching and research.
