As coronavirus spread across Nigeria, with Kwara joining the latest state affected by the virus, institutions and organizations are devising means to curb the effects.
Last month, the management of First Technical University (TECH-U) said it will deploy its Learning Management System to continue to deliver lecturers and assignments online to students.
The Nigerian government has shut down private and public schools across the country to prevent, curtail, control, and contain the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
