However, he assured that the palliative measure we are doing now will assist the road users to have their way pending the end of this raining season. If you go to the other side, we are doing the same thing as we are talking and I want to assure members of the University Community that there is no cause for alarm. The covert is strong, it won’t collapse”.

According to him, “Because of the expansion around this area, you’ll discover that the volume of run-off water must have overcome the size of the covert. The only way out is to change the covert to covert of two cell”.
