Prof Ajibefun was elated at the maiden visit of the Executive Secretary of TetFund to the Institution, describing it as historic.

The Executive Secretary of TetFund, represented by Director, Research and Development, Mallam Aliyu Na’iya, explained that the visit was part of verification of physical projects and reconciliation of financial records of beneficiaries of the Fund in order to determine their compliance with laid-down procedures for retiring released funds.

This, he said, would ensure transparency and openness in dealing with financial transaction of the agency.
