The Rector, Kano State Polytechnic, Dr. Abubakar Umar Farouk, FCA has commended the commitments of the member representing Wudil/Garko Federal Constituency, Honourable Abdulhakeem Kamilu Ado for the swift action he takes towards uplifting the life standard of his people.
The Rector made the commendation when he received the Honourable Member who revisited his office for the second time on his plan to sponsor one hundred students from his constituency to further their education at Kano State Polytechnic.
The Rector further stressed the need for Political leaders to imitate the gesture shown by Honourable Abdulhakeem stating that such corresponds with the ideology of Kwankwasiyya Movement leader, Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso which encourages sponsoring youths to further their education so as to be useful members of society as well as promote self-reliance.
“We have already allocated some rooms at SORTED, Rano and SES, Gwarzo for your students, and Inshaa Allah they are going to graduate with 2 certificates; National Diploma certificates and Entrepreneurship Skills Acquisition certificates”, the Rector said.
In his response, Honourable Abdulhakeem thanked the Rector and his management team for their foresight and initiatives towards providing more educational opportunities, especially entrepreneurship training to the good people of Kano State.
He noted that he visited the institution for the second time to express his sincere appreciation for the wonderful gesture extended to him and the people of his constituency, and also to settle all the registration fees for 100 students he sponsored to pursue various educational careers at the Polytechnic.
He assured the Rector that he would personally convey the sponsored students to their various schools in the Polytechnic so as to encourage and motivate them.
The lawmaker therefore assured the Rector that he will be visiting and monitoring the students’ activities regularly to follow the footsteps of Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso and the Executive Governor of Kano State, Engr. Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf for as they do with the state-sponsored students.
He maintained that by the special grace of Allah, this is just the beginning of collaboration and synergy between the Institution and the good people of his constituency, promising that he will come to the aid of the Institution towards tackling its most pressing challenges.
