Adamawa State is set to welcome three new comprehensive technical colleges in the near future. Governor Ahmadu Fintiri made this announcement during his fifth-anniversary state-wide broadcast on Wednesday, highlighting the aim of increasing school enrollment among citizens.
Fintiri emphasized the state’s focus on skills acquisition, science, and technology. He stated, “We are paying special attention to skills acquisition as well as science and technology. In this regard, I am happy to announce that we have commenced the process for the construction of three new comprehensive technical schools.”
Governor Fintiri further elaborated that each senatorial zone would be endowed with one of the new technical colleges, with one of them specifically designated for girls.
Highlighting his administration’s commitment to education, he emphasized, “We believe that addressing Out-of-School syndrome, providing free education, paying WAEC and NECO fees for our candidates, building and furnishing new schools, recruiting more teachers and so on that we have been doing will ease the economic burden on parents.”
Expressing optimism about the impact of these efforts, he stated that they would empower youth with the necessary tools to overcome poverty.
