to procures 3 modern fire trucks, ratify projects

The Kogi State government has announced the approval of another state university, proposed to be located in the Kogi western senatorial district, attesting that the essence amongst many other things was the need to provide more educational facility for young university hopeful in the state.

This makes it the second university to be established by the Yahaya Bello administration

Making the announcement, the state Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology, Wemi Jones hinted that the process would involve the inauguration of a 15-man implementation.

Committee, made up of Professors from all over Kogi State. He said the committee would be given the responsibility of drafting the university law, academic brief and the master plan adding that they would also be saddled with the task of recommending a suitable location and whether the university would be specialised or conventional.

The commissioner said ‘’It is expected that the committee will give its report within the next one month from the inauguration so that we can move as fast as possible as it would be the government’s desire to see the university kick off before the end of this tenure’’

Giving an instance the Commissioner narrated that during the last admission exercise at the Prince Abubakar Audu University there was a population explosion of prospective intakes as the school had over 25,000 admission seekers as against capacity intake of about 6,000 noting that even indigenes of the state were possibly deprived of admission or their intended course of study.

He recalled that one of the primary reason for the establishment of Confluence University of Science and Technology, Osara was to mitigate the challenge of the state’s qualified students, not gaining admission to courses of their choices because of the fact that Kogi is regarded as a state that is educationally advantaged

According to him, Kogi West is blessed with tones of academia and highly known for education, hence putting a university in Kogi West, particularly Okun land is so apt

The Commissioner asserted that funding has been and would always be a challenge but the government decided to take the bull by the horn and make such audacious move, while he assured that the 15-man committee would be mandated to make recommendations on sources of funding for the approved institution

In his own briefing, the Commissioner for Works, Simon Bako hinted that the state Executive Council approved the procurement of 3 modern fire trucks as part of plans to ensure rapid responses and salvage any possible fire outbreak in the state.

He also noted that the Council received reports and ratified some of the ongoing projects across the state including the construction of internal roads at the Confluence University of Science and Technology, Osara, itakpe – Okene – Total road which has both reached advanced stage of completion. The council also ratified additional work for Okene Township Road and the school of Nursery and Midwifery Obangede.

Speaking also, the Chief Press Secretary, Onogwu Muhammed reiterated that the state government under the leadership of Governor Bello has remained consistent in delivering on the infrastructural development pledge made to the people of the state assuring that ongoing projects would be completed in due course.

Proud kogite

GYB for life!

This man is bereft of ideas

Which fund will Kogi use to manage three universities?

I dont see this as a wise venture excepts it will be a pure profit making entity. Education isn't cheap anywhere. The way both the State government and the federal government keep constructing school without funding them amazes me.

Okay

Hope they won't be going on strike in the next few years. It's not about building something, it's about maintaining it. Kudos to the government

Okay

Working governor

Which work did he do?

Misplaced priorities……. Since apc/buhari led government said it’s not their responsibility to create and provide jobs for the citizens, why not focus on human capital development instead of just building universities with no jobs for graduates after wasting their parents funds in school

Once again welcome to Niger area

Ps. I just checked, this is a sponsored post…. Just look at the comments from paid actors… that 30k stipends na Im go kill una

Is your sycophancy not obvious to you?

While I admit he has done some substantial things in kogi.. he needs to take lessons from Engr. David Umahi.. below are the reasons
Ebonyi will forever remember him

Nothing exciting about this project.

How robust is his human capital development ?

How economically equipped are kogites to be able to access the university education ?

Is the first one built to world class standard or still same mediocre ill- equipped ugly structures ?

Are the parents owed backlog of salaries same people who are expected to pay tuition fees for their wards in the universities being built ?


Nonsensical !

Ordianry Kogi oooo. Ordinary Kogi has three state universities, just like Lagos.

While all Igbos states are not able to manage the single state university that they have. You will see them all over other state universities complaining that they are marginalized? Go to your states

Yahaya Bello is the epitome of leadership failure among the the Naija youth...He succeeded in taking kogi state from.bad state of the former administration Abubakr Audu to worst

Ok, noted.
