N 116 of the Federal Laws of Nigeria, 2004, the Legislature, averred that the Nigeria Institute of Transport Technology, offers corporate leadership, strategic management, training, research, advisory services, transport intelligence, monitoring, and technology development to meet the country’s needs.
Fresh Angle International, can report that Revd. Waive, had informed the House that the Effuruntor Centre, is about 50% completed, but has since been abandoned, making it the only centre yet to become operational out of the centres, that were proposed and sited in Katsina, Kano, Borno, Benue, Ekiti, Lagos, Ebony and Delta.
According to the Christian Cleric cum lawmaker, institutions like Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Petroleum Training Institute and other Oil Companies within the area, are waiting for the take-off of the centre, “with the University of Petroleum Resources, signing an MOU with NITT to provide pipeline transportation for the nation’s oil and gas industry at the centre, because of its strategic location.”
