Omo-Agege stated:”Bills are passed everyday through both chambers. That may sound difficult to you but as difficult as that is, even after you scale though that hurdle, getting presidential assent is another big hurdle.
“But I was lucky that I found favour in the sight of our president, President Muhammadu Buhari, and also found favour in the sight of the Honourable Minister of Education. And they were able to approve it,” he said.
“By God’s grace, I believe in the next two months or thereabouts, with all of the structures already in place, academic activities should begin at the Federal Polytechnic Orogun.”
