FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC, BIDA' S GOVERNING COUNCIL PLEDGES TO MOULD YOUNG MINDS INTO SKILLED PROFESSIONALS

The governing council of The Federal Polytechnic, Bida, Niger State  says it will ensure that the institution remains a place where young minds are not only educated but molded into skilled professionals, morally grounded citizens, and forward-thinking entrepreneurs.

The chairman, Hon. Ismaila Muazu Hassan stated this during the 94^th Regular Meeting of the Governing Council.

Hon. Muazu Hassan Vowed that his regime would leave no stone unturned in  making sure that the vision is realized in ways that are both profound and sustainable.

“As we embark on this new chapter, our task is to ensure that this vision continues to be realized in ways that are both profound and sustainable. We must strive to create an academic environment that fosters intellectual rigor, nurtures creativity, and encourages ethical leadership. Our students are the future of our nation, and it is our responsibility to equip them with the knowledge, skills, and values that will enable them to navigate and contribute to an increasingly complex and dynamic world”, he said.

He urged members of the council to be guided by a shared vision of excellence, equity, and innovation in all that they do.

“In this endeavor, we must not lose sight of the importance of technological innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. The world around us is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and it is imperative that our curriculum, research, and community engagement activities reflect this reality. We must challenge ourselves to think beyond traditional paradigms and embrace new methodologies and partnerships that will position our polytechnic at the forefront of technological education and innovation.

Moreover, our commitment to moral integrity and ethical conduct must be unwavering. In a time when the lines between right and wrong are often blurred, it is crucial that we instill in our students a strong moral compass. This, I believe, is the bedrock of true leadership and the foundation upon which lasting success is built”, he added.

Concerning the well-being of academic and non-academic personnel, the governing council chairman pledges a strong and amicable working rapport together with a generous benefits package for the workforce.
