The Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Prof. Faruk Adamu Kuta, has expressed the university’s commitment to nurturing newly donated fruit tree seedlings to maturity as part of the Agro-Climatic Resilience in Semi-Arid Landscapes (ACReSAL) project.

ACReSAL is a World Bank-assisted initiative co-funded by the Niger State government aimed at reforesting degraded wetlands and semi-arid landscapes with improved fruit trees.

Prof. Kuta gave this assurance during the handover and symbolic planting of fruit tree seedlings by ACReSAL and the University Management.
