Peter University recently recorded the feat of being the first Nigerian tertiary institution, private or public-owned, to complete its own fiber optics cable for Internet access with a 35-metre mast. The fibre optics cables were laid around the entire school with 10 terminations, to serve users from the base station at Ekwulobia.
The new technology will equally serve the institution’s broadcast station when it becomes operational. The university is equally deploying current Learning Management Systems (LMS) to enable students and scholars who want to access its lectures from any part of the world to do so with ease and in very new technology.
