Adamawa State is soon to have three comprehensive technical colleges.
Governor Ahmadu Fintiri, who announced this in his fifth anniversary state-wide broadcast on Wednesday, said the colleges will raise enrolment for school-age citizens.
‘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,” Fintiti said.
He explained that each senatorial zone will have one, and that “one of these schools is going to be exclusively for girls.”
The governor said his administration had done much in the education sector in the last five years because the government is passionate about education.
“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,” he added.
He expressed the optimism that the efforts would also equip the youths with the tools to swim out of poverty.
