FUTMINNA is an old name in the Nigerian school calendar.
I've never had the opportunity to see how it looks like until now.
Thank God for this contest in which we are shown different government institutions we've never seen.
Interesting to know this

Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida Library is the school's library. There are also many libraries located in the school in each faculty

Now I understand why it's one of the best universities of technology because every faculty has its library.

Wish you best of luck.

Hahahahah, you have said right!!!
Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate 🥳
