FG Approves N30bn For Polytechnics And Colleges Of Education

The Federal Government on Tuesday approved N30 billion for Polytechnics and Colleges of Education in the country.

The approval came on the heels of a series of agitations for better welfare for members by the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, ASUP.

The Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu disclosed this at a round table organized by ASUP in Abuja with the theme “Repositioning Nigeria’s Polytechnics for National Relevance and Global Competitiveness.”

Adamu assured that his ministry was working hard to ensure the release of the money to the respective institutions.

He told unions in tertiary institutions to focus more on capacity building through skill development which is its core mandate than on certification.
