Governor Uba Sani has aligned his education policies with what obtains at the national level, which are in line with the Human Capital Development thrust of his administration.

The Rector of Nuhu Bamali Polytechnic, Dr Mohammed Kabir Abdullahi who made this known in a press statement issued on Sunday, thanked the Governor for increasing the retirement age of academic staff of the institution from 60 to 65 years.

The statement which was signed by Abdullahi Ibrahim Shehu, Secretary, Information and Protocol, noted that the ‘’action of the Governor did not come to us as a surprise considering his positive policies on education, including the reduction of students’ registration fees within three months after his swearing-in.’’

According to the Rector, ‘’these policies mark a significant milestone in improving access to education to the citizens of the state and welfare of the staff of the Polytechnic.’’

It will be recalled that Governor Uba Sani has issued an Executive Order on Thursday last week, which increased the retirement age of the academic staff some Kaduna State-owned tertiary institutions to 65 years, provided they meet the necessary requirements.

The decision followed a meeting with the Governor and the management as well as leadership of Academic Unions of all state-owned tertiary institutions which held on Tuesday last week.

The press statement promised that Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic, Zaria, will continue to support Governor Uba Sani’s administration and his policies at all times.

“The Rector also wishes commend the efforts of the Honourable Commissioner for Education Prof. Muhammad Sani Bello, the entire management and the leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, Nubapoly Chapter,’’ it added.
