The Lecture is predicated on the ravaging effects of microbes in air, land and water on human hosts and possible solutions to alleviate the havoc wrecked on the hosts.
According to Professor Abubakar, the Inaugural Lecturer, “I will explore various microbial arsenal for attack and defence as tools for human hostages such as possession of Beta lactamase enzyme, production of Serotoxins, among others”.
