The management of the Federal University Wukari (FUW) has inaugurated a committee to handle the maiden National Universities Commission (NUC) accreditation visit to the institution.
.
In an opening remark at the inauguration ceremony, the Vice-Chancellor of the University, Professor Geoffrey Okogbaa said the first meeting and inauguration of the committee was necessary owing to the concern showed by the NUC on visiting the institution for the purpose.
.
Prof. Okogbaa who is also chairman of the committee said the need to swing into action on preparation to the accreditation exercise became imperative because of the sudden change in NUC's decision to visit FUW in March as against the earlier contemplated time by the commission.

According to the Vice-Chancellor, though the accreditation body indicated coming in March, 2015, the University was allowed opportunity to request for extension of time.
.
The committee has the Vice-Chancellor as chairman while, the Registrar, Thomas Gangumi; the Bursar, Joshua Olatunji; University Librarian, Rilwanu Abdulsalami; Director of Academic Planning, Prof. Bright Megbo and Deputy Director, Academic Planning Uduak Udom (the Resource Person) are members.
