Apparently worried by the plight of his institution, the Provost College of Agriculture Ganye in Adamawa State, Dr. Abubakar Yaji has urged the State House of Assembly Standing Committee on Education to take up the challenges facing the college with Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri for solution.
Dr.Yaji lamented that the institution has been confronting a lot of challenges since establishment about 20 years ago which affected its development, insisting that the college is offering 14 different courses but none of the courses has been accredited.
The Provost who was fielding questions from newsmen shortly after defending the 2020 proposed budget estimate of the academic institution today, stated that the situation of the college is sympathetic, hence the need for governor's intervention.
According to him, the school has no single course that has been accredited by the regulatory body since 1992, explaining that basically there are criteria that will make a course to be accredited: infrastructure, equipment, residential offices, security challenges among others which he said are some of their problems.
The Provost who sounded optimistic, said he is confident that whenever the house committee takes up the issue of his institution, the Governor will act and it will enable the college to meet it standard
He added that this year's budget is perfect and full of hope, saying with the effort of the Governor in prioritising education, the sector will be be better for it and however appealed to the members of the house not to relent in providing good representation to the citizens.
