I have already built administrative blocks of 92 rooms, e-library of 20 books, a lab for computer engineering, a computer science lab, a lab for electrical engineering, a lab for statistics. I’m pres­ently completing two hostels for 400 students and I have built a three-storey building for the rector and the bursar. I bought a dome in Canada and I have mounted the dome. The dome will serve as a multi-purpose of 1,500 students. We are tarrying the school now, we are tarring my second hospital. I am building an internet eye hospital. Where my friends ove...
