Read the passage below carefully and answer the question that follows:
The Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria (FRIN), established as the Forest Research Station in Ibadan in 1954, was mandated to conduct research into all aspects of forestry, wildlife management, and agroforestry.

Headquartered in Jericho, Ibadan, the institute operates six specialized research colleges located across different geopolitical zones in Nigeria. These colleges train middle-level manpower in forestry and environmental science, while the institute's main campus manages a herbarium containing over 100,000 dried plant specimens collected since 1942.
