Steve and Catherine Afolami on one hand and that of the Director of the University’s Institute of Food Security, Environmental Resources and Agricultural Research (IFSERAR), Professor Segun Osinowo.
UNAAB’s Alabata Road, Permanent site, temporarily shifted base to Lagos on Saturday, 10th September as the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Oluwafemi Olaiya Balogun led a quantum of members of the University community to the holy matrimonies.
