Emmanuel Alfred
The Faculty of Law building in the University of Calabar, Cross River State has been completed ten years after the construction began.
The three-storey building was sponsored by the Federal Government of Nigeria under the 2012 budget and facilitated by the Leader of the 7th National Assembly, Sen. Victor Ndoma-Egba, who represented Cross River Central in the Senate at that time.
The project, which was abandoned for sometime caught the attention of the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Calabar, Prof Florence Obi and she promised that the building will be completed for use.
Today, the entire building of the Faculty of Law in Unical is now completed and waiting for the end of ASUU strike for lecturers and students to move in and study in a serene environment.
The building has mass capacity for students in its various halls, modern conveniences for male and female students, good ventilation system, well arranged desks, good office accommodation for the Dean of the Faculty and other staff, good water running system among many others.
The VC had always described the Law Faculty as one of the flagship programmes of the University, hence her desire to ensure the timely completion of the building within a year that she took over as VC.
