Zulum approves N50m, staff houses, students hostels for Army University, Biu As He Commends Buratai

… To sponsor indigent students 
… Borno now reference on education, VC tells Gov.

Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, has approved the allocation of N50 million alongside the construction of staff houses and students’ hostels at the Nigerian Army University, Biu (NAUB), which is owned by the Federal Government.

The governor announced the interventions on Friday when the Army University’s Vice Chancellor, Professor Kyari Mohammed, led a management delegation to a courtesy call on the governor at the Government House in Maiduguri. 


“… Borno State Government will release N50m to the University”, Zulum announced. 

“Insha Allah, we will provide accommodation for staff as well as hostels for students' use at the university. On this note, I want to direct the Commissioner for Works and Housing to come up with an architectural design for the project”, Zulum said. 

Before Friday’s intervention, Governor Zulum had extended series of support to the University of Maiduguri, the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH), Federal Polytechnic, Monguno, Federal College of Education, Gwoza, and a host of other Federal Government institutions either being set up or existing in Borno State.

… To sponsor indigent students

Governor Zulum during the courtesy visit directed Borno State’s Ministry of Education to prepare a list of deserving students that will be awarded scholarship to pursue for higher education at the Nigerian Army University, Biu.

The governor directed that beneficiaries be drawn from the the three senatorial zones: Northern, Central and Southern senatorial districts of the state.

Zulum also directed all state-owned tertiary institutions to re-introduce convocation ceremonies which were suspended due to the activities of Boko Haram insurgents. 

He noted that such ceremonies should be used to identify performing students and award scholarships for further studies.

The governor commended former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai (rtd), for facilitating the establishment of the Army University in Borno.

Speaking earlier, Vice Chancellor of the Nigerian Army University, Biu, Prof. Kyari Mohammed, commended the remarkable progress made by Borno in the field of educational development, during the last four years of Zulum's administration. 

He noted that the state, once plagued by insurgency, has transformed into a reference point for other regions in Nigeria which seek to enhance their educational systems.

“As a university, we are particularly encouraged by the monumental achievements recorded in the education sector, from the primary to the tertiary level. In terms of teacher quality development, recruitment, training and re-training and the high-quality infrastructural development for which Borno is now a reference point around the country”, Prof. Kyari said.

He thanked Governor Zulum for supporting the Army University and other tertiary institutions across the state.

Borno state that was almost a desolated scrap-yard got rejigged because of his Competence and capacity.


Zulum na performer just like former Governors Wike & Umahi. Unfortunately, Wike soiled his hands because of Politics and people seem to have forgotten all his good deeds.

Active man

Zulum na performer

How?

50m ? With all the monies allocated to that state even with funds sent to that zone internationally ?

Please if you don't know about the dollars sent there, don't even quote me.

Good one sir

Good one zulum, a good man

Wow! He's a cheerful giver! 🥰












Happy weekend y'all! Do well to check my signature!

What do we need Army University for when we already have a Defense Academy? We are indeed a wasteful Nation

So they want to recruit and raise more soldiers to face Boko Haram rather than also facing their educational system and university.

I heard the Northerners are haters of Education 🤔. Just asking?

wike performance is nothing special my brother, amechi performed better than him in terms of infrastructure.. Ask people in river states to score his performance metric in Education and other key sectors asides infrastructure like building of bridges and roads he failed and what you don't is that most governors love to build roads and infrastructure to enrich themselves by escalating the cost of the projects they did it not for the sake of common men

Well, I live in Rivers state.

Whether the bridges and flyovers he built were to embezzle is not material here at all because it has made life much easier.

You need to see how PH terrible traffic were before he built them. It was just mad and chaotic like Lagos if not worse. An Lagos even get Lastma everywhere ooo

Mr Flyover do better on that one abeg

All these military institutions should spread across the country. The major ones must not be in north

The best of the best in Nigeria is in the northern part of Nigeria!!! Take it or leave it.





We move!!!

I dont expect anything less from a foolish Ebola supporter with Persecution complex syndrome and without rational thinking. We have a Nigerian defense Academy that Carter's for the Three arms of the military and at this point where our economy is nosediving we cant afford to be establishing and maintaining Airforce university's, army universitys and Navy Universitys especially since most of soldiers get to undertake additional trainings abroad.
Would the establishment of such universities prevent the military from sending its personnel's abroad to undertake professional courses at the expense of the taxes and resources of the Nigerian people?

Being a Bola tinubu supporter doesn't make one MAD, does it?

And why are all the military institutions congregated in the North?

Ok
