Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has relieved the Vice-Chancellor of the Kogi State University, Ayangba, Prof. Mohammed Abdulkadir, of his appointment.


A statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Folasade Ayoade, in Lokoja on Tuesday, also announced the removal of Prof. Mohammed Atureta as the Rector of the Kogi State Polytechnic, Lokoja.
