Lawal, who was represented by the organisation’s Community Engagement Manager, Mukhtar Modibbo noted that the campus tour was in collaboration with Community Life Project, CLP.
The officer also added that the tour was to also mobilise youths to track and monitor constituency projects, including the implementation of Tertiary Education Trust Funds projects and increase their interest in government spending.

The Dean, Students Affairs, Mr Farouk Musa advised the students and youth to make their votes count and demand for good governance.
