The
Benue State Polytechnic is a tertiary education institute in Ugbokolo,
Okpokwu LGA, Benue State, Nigeria. It was originally known as the
Murtala College of Arts, Science and Technology, established in 1977 by
the military governor of Benue State, Colonel Abdullahi Shelleng
(1976–1978). In 1983, the college's Department of Agriculture of the
College was merged with Akperan Orshi College of Agriculture. The school
is approved as a state-owned polytechnic by the National Board for
Technical Education.
Following violence elsewhere in Benue State in March 2006, during a peaceful student protest at the polytechnic about a student killing and against higher fees, the chairman of Okpokwu Local Government urged students not to take the law into their own hands. At the 29th Matriculation Ceremony of new students later that month the rector urged students to shun all social ills. In November 2008 the polytechnic's school of Business and Management Studies organized its first annual national conference with the theme: Imperatives of Prudent Resources Management in Nigeria for Sustainable Development
