Agbani – The member, representing Nkanu East/Nkanu West Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon.Pharm. Nnolim Nnaji, on Friday, donated 50 solar street lights to ESUT.

Apart from providing security, the street lights will also enhance adequate lighting of newly built Barr Dr. Peter Ndubuisi Mbah Multi-purpose Auditorium in ESUT.

He said that the gesture aimed at showing solidarity and support to the Governor’s commendable service delivery in the state, was equally geared towards promoting research and conducive learning environment in the University.

Hon.
