Vice Chancellor of Al-Hikmah University, Ilorin, Kwara State, Prof. Noah Yusuf, has said the institution has the capacity to become the “food basket” of the state.

Yusuf spoke in Ilorin, yesterday, at a press briefing heralding the 12th Convocation of the university. According to him, the proposition will only be feasible if the Federal Government gives constant financial assistance to private universities.“The faculty of agriculture of the institution has robust programmes that are already at the ripe stage to conveniently feed the people of the state,” he disclosed.

“As I address you, we no longer go out to look for food; we produce every food we eat at our campus in Igbaja. Very soon, we will begin to produce enough food for the entire people of Kwara.” Three prominent Nigerians – Fola Adeola, Mrs. Mosun Bello-Olusoga and Mrs. Foluke AbdulRazak – will be conferred with honorary doctorate degrees of the university.
