The Kaduna State University (KASU) will today confer an Honorary Doctorate Degree in Management on former governor of the state, Senator Ahmed Mohammed Makarfi.
A statement from Makarfi media adviser, Mukhtar Sirajo said the decision to honour Makarfi with the award, as conveyed by the Vice Chancellor of the University, Professor Mohammed Tanko, was in recognition of the Senator’s numerous contributions to nation building across time.
