He said, as essential stakeholders in the Niger Delta University advancement project, the Alumni has made a modest intervention in the development of Infrastructural facilities in the school, by donating one million naira for the provision of classroom furnitures, adding that these are besides the water and other projects executed by previous administrations.

Despite the aforementioned, Barr.
