“This in line with the department’s tradition of sharpening students’ creative writing abilities”, he said.
He stated that the magazine would be open to all students notwithstanding their department or level adding that equal opportunity would be given to students within the campus community who wish to express themselves and contribute their quota to the advancement of the university.
