University of Bamenda (UBa) constructions
Instead of paying a foreign company or bringing builders from outside, the University of Bamenda (UBa) uses its own students to construct classrooms.
Recently, the citadel of learning received structures constructed by students from its National Higher Polytechnic Institute.
The direct use of labour provided by the institution’s students is proof of the role technical education can play in Cameroon.
While inaugurating the building, the Deputy Vice Chancellor in charge of Internal Control and Evaluation, Professor Ghogomo Julius, expressed gratitude, stressing how it will provide more learning space.
Eyong Michael, representing the Northwest Regional Delegate of Public Works, accompanied the Deputy VC.
“The structures to be used in the training of NAHPI students are expected to greatly reduce the problem of teaching space in the university,” the university said in a statement.
UBA students have begun using the facility. Infrastructural problems remain much of an issue not only in UBa but across state universities in Cameroon.
