Medical Services

PREAMBLE

The College Medical Centre started operations in 1969 as a one room clinic being run by a male superintendent.  Mr. Osinubi.  The College was then under the Federal Ministry of Education.

On the 1^st of April, 1970 when the College became autonomous, the need for recognition became apparent with the increase in the staff as well as student population.  A part time medical consultant was therefore employed.

A new medical centre was built by a  College Taskforce and declared open on the 4^th of December, 1986 by the Chairman of the Governing Council, Alhaji Inuwa Musa.

The centre has since been functioning and maintaining the health status of the College Community.
