Plateau State University (PLASU) Bokkos is poised to become the sporting headquarters of Plateau State.
The move is aimed at positioning the university for a leading role in peace building across the state, said Acting Vice Chancellor, Professor Shedrack Best.
Receiving a medal won by the university’s team in a recent football tournament, Prof. Best pledged to provide relevant facilities for the attainment of the vision, describing football as a unifier.
“Sports is an instrument not only for well-being but for social cohesion and for the peace building of the local community and local government which is badly needed,” Best said at a brief ceremony in his office on October 25.
“I hope that we can use PLASU as a sporting capital in order to achieve this,” the Acting Vice Chancellor said.
PLASU took part in a month-long local government tournament tagged Jasper Fiton Peace and Unity football tournament, second edition 2024.
The university’s team, PLASU Boulders, led by Coach Agwom, conceded no goal until the finals of the tournament, which it lost 1:0 to Selected Boys of Tenti. Professor Best applauded the team’s performance and encouraged it to do more in future outings.
