The Vice Chancellor of Cross River University of Technology (CRUTECH), Prof. Anthony Owan Enoh has raised alarm over alleged encroachment on the institution’s legitimate land by neighbouring communities. Owan Enoh, who spoke at the institution’s convocation ceremony in Calabar, stressed that constant encroachment on the school’s land, located at Efut community in Calabar South local council is gradually affecting the school’s space, which could inhibit expansion. He urged the state government to check the alleged encroachment by the host community before the matter gets out of hand. The Vice Chancellor alleged that all the affected campuses have witnessed aggressive conspiracy by the host communities to reclaim the large expanses of the institution’s legitimate land. This tells nothing of the daily break-ins into offices, workshops and staff quarters we are force to contend with”.
