Text of the page (random words):
ary from one section to another for instance in terms of infrastructure the school does not have enough classrooms for the students from some sections based on that clashes occur on venues especially in the morning when most classes hold again even for sections that have classrooms those classes tend to be unfit for the number of the students another challenge that has not yet been checked relating to infrastructure is that of hostels or hall of residence as it s widely known the hostels available for students are not capable of accommodating all the students interested in residing within the campus as a result of that many new students are stranded on the campus especially at the beginning of the session and others that are lucky get squatting spaces with friends and family that have already gotten hostels administration edit see also list of ahmadu bello university chancellors ahmadu bello university has a chancellor as its ceremonial head while the vice chancellor is
