The association’s president, Dr Sani Khalil, made the call in Abuja during a reunion and get-together organised by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) branch of the alumni body.

Khalil, who described education as the bedrock of development, also urged the present administration to consider granting scholarships to indigent students to alleviate their plights and ensure education for all Nigerians.

He said the student loan scheme is a laudable initiative by President Tinubu, but a lot still needed to be done as most beneficiaries might not be able to repay due to a lack of employment opportunities in the country.

Khalil’ who is the global president of the association, while stressing the need for effective entrepreneurship studies in tertiary Institutions, called for the resuscitation of the country’s ailing industry towards creating jobs for Nigerian graduates.

Also, the immediate past president of the association, Prof. Ahmed Mora, commended the FCT branch for organising the event and advised members to unite towards ensuring the progress of the Association.

Mora who emphasised the roles of the Alumni Association towards national development said the association should not relent in complimenting the efforts of the government in the development of the nation’s education sector.

On her part, the diaspora coordinator of the association in the United States of America Dr Nonye Onyewuenyi, said efforts are being made to effectively sensitize members in the Diaspora towards contributing their quota to the betterment of the Association in Nigeria.

She, therefore called for harmonious cordial relationships among members for the benefit of the Association and Nigeria in general.

Earlier, the caretaker chairman of the association in FCT, Mr. Sam Agbi said the occasion was organised to re-unite the members and remind them of their responsibilities to the Association and their former Institution.

Agbi stated that the association had put necessary measures in place to enhance the welfare of members through adequate networking and improve the performance of the association towards educational development in Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

He advised all members to be alive to their responsibilities and be committed to the progress of the association
