The leadership of MAU Stars paid a courtesy visit to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor Iliyasu Audu, to mark his one year in office. The club presented him with an Award of Excellence as the Champion of Students’ Success in recognition of his hard work, dedication to students’ welfare, and his support for the Vice-Chancellor’s developmental efforts.
The DVC thanked MAU Stars for promoting the university in a positive way. He urged the club to keep enlightening students on the benefits of NELFUND. He assured students that refunds are being processed. He added that the Vice-Chancellor has been pushing hard to ensure all MAU students access the scheme, including a recent trip to Abuja last week for NELFUND matters.
He reported progress on electricity and water supply. The MAU solar project has powered the university for seven days, and more boreholes will be built across the campus. Hostel renovations are ongoing and will be completed within December. He added that the Vice-Chancellor has ordered new mattresses for students.
He explained the delay in result processing. About 4,000 students did not pay school fees, which made Senate approval difficult. The Senate will sit on the 16th of this month to approve results. He urged students who have not paid school fees or registered their courses to do so before then.
MAU Stars urges students with issues in their results to resolve them before December 16, since results will be approved on that date.
The DVC noted that the university is aware of many challenges but the Vice-Chancellor and management are working hard to reduce them. He explained that the university received no allocation in the 2025 national budget. Most projects and maintenance work rely on student payments and TETFund support.
He confirmed that a new hostel is under construction, donated by the former First Lady of Nigeria, Hajiya Aisha Buhari, wife of the late President Muhammadu Buhari.
He added that progress is ongoing on transport issues within the university. He assured students that the administration of Professor Ibrahim Umar will address these challenges soon.
