‘Tinubu’s govt will improve standard of education’

A Member of the Governing Council of Federal University, Kashere, Gombe State, Chief Bassey Esin, has said the President Bola Tinubu administration will improve the standard of education in the country.

Esin noted that the introduction of the student loan scheme, a key policy of the admission of the President under the Renewed Hope Agenda, showed that the Tinubu has a special interest in education.

He, however, urged Nigerians to join hands with the Federal Government to deliver quality education to Nigerians.

He spoke in an interview after the inauguration of the Governing Councils by the Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman, last week.

Esin noted that the administration introduced the student loans to ensure that as many young persons as possible have access to education.

According to him, all hands should be on deck to ensure high educational standards are upheld in the universities.

He lauded the President for appointing him into the governing board of the university, pledging to contribute his quota towards the growth of education in Nigeria.

He also pledged to deploy his experience to the growth and development of the Federal University, Kashere Gombe.

“The focus of this administration is to ensure that our students complete their programmes on time. Four years should be four years, if you are doing a four years programme,” he added.
