“The World Health Organization recently declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and advised that as much as possible, individuals and organizations should avoid clustered gatherings to prevent the spread of the virus.”
Yakubu further disclosed that a new date for the conference will be announced as soon as possible.
She added;
“The Authority regrets any inconvenience this postponement might have caused you.”
