“This year’s admissions competition was tough, and we wish to express our gratitude to all of the applicants for giving it their all”, she said. 

The Secretary thanked the Vice-Chancellor and entire Management of Ahmadu Bello University for taking the first step in the collaboration between ABU and Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, saying that they would look forward to expanding on the relationship.
