Rivers State University of Science and Technology (RSUST) has a campus known as satellite campus in Ahoada. And other places the RSUST campuses were built include, Etche and Emohua. According to the Vice Chancellor of Rivers State University of Science and Technology (RSUST), Prof. Nlerum Sunday Okogbule (as at the year 2021) the campus built in Ahoada is intended to boost the social and economic activities and as well help to improve the development of the host community and neighbouring communities.
