The Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Most Rev Mathew Hassan Kukah, has commended Governor Uba Sani for his efforts in stabilising Kaduna State.
Bishop Kukah, also the Pro-Chancellor of Federal University of Applied Sciences, Kachia, praised Governor Sani for going above and beyond to make the varsity a reality.
Bishop Kukah stated this when he and the university’s management members paid Governor Sani a courtesy call at Sir Kashim Ibrahim House.
The pro-chancellor disclosed that the vice-chancellor, Professor Barnabas Qurix, has visited relevant Ministries, Departments and Agencies of Government to facilitate the commencement of the academic session.
Kukah, who said the Federal University of Applied Science has built on the pioneering efforts of the former NOK University, promised that it would be one of the best in the country.
The Bishop said the university will commence the academic session in September, but a few challenges will require Kaduna State’s intervention.
He added that the university would need more infrastructure in the coming years, which requires more land for expansion. The school will also require an access road.
The pro chancellor also said that the Federal University of Applied Sciences would require utility vehicles and adequate security.
Responding, Governor Uba Sani said that he has been working closely with Bishop Kukah on not just the university but several issues, adding that the Bishop has been a pillar of support.
