Several netizens of Benue origin have taken to social media to reminisce about the good old days when the library was still in use and in good shape.
According to Agagbe Kelvin, the library was instrumental in getting them prepared for West Africa Examination Council WAEC, National Examination Council, and NECO.
“I remember how this library serve myself and many others preparing for WAEC and NECO examinations, with just an ID we got then,(that even enable some of us to open bank accounts as at the time) gave us access to numerous resources and text plus the most sought past questions and syllabus”.
According to Kelvin, it is impossible to be called leaders and be informed if the place of research and reading is inaccessible.
“Today images of this resource center is rather an eyesore, under whoever care, the state library has gone moribund, if as a state we are not reading and researching, how can we lead and be informed”
He, therefore, called the attention of the State Governor, Dr. Samuel Ortom to Revamp the library.
