First and
foremost, while acknowledging the seamless and peaceful transition of power in
May, 2015, we use this opportunity to thank the President, Commander-in-Chief
of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari (GCFR), for supporting us and creating the
enabling environment for us to consolidated on our mandate of providing
interventions that have helped in transforming our Public Tertiary Institutions
across the country.
We use this
opportunity to assure Mr. President that we are determined to be more
innovative and creative in partnering with the Regulatory Agencies in the
education sub-sector, being the National University Commission, National Board
for Tertiary Education and National Commission for Colleges of Education to
revitalize and make our Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education
improve on their global ranking and contribute to Nigerian economy more
competitive.
Secondly, we
use this opportunity to assure the Honourable Minister of Education, the
Honourable Minister of State for Education, the Senate Committee on Tertiary
Education and TETFund and the House of Representative Committee on Tertiary
Education and Services, that we are going into the New Year with the resolve on
our public acknowledged achievements in Federal and State Universities,
Polytechnics and Colleges of Education in this country.
Thirdly, we
also use this opportunity to assure lecturers and students of public tertiary
institutions that we shall do whatever is possible including listening to their
suggestions and criticisms, to make Tertiary Education Trust Fund even more
responsive to their expectations of us in the new Year and beyond so that
together we could witness the desired positive change necessary to place
teachers and students as top priority in our intervention projects.
Finally, we
look forward to working with existing and prospective local and international
partners who are ready to join us in realizing the vision of Mr. President that
education and particularly science and technology, must shape and drive our
nation’s dream for self actualization with less emphasis on exhaustible
resources and more emphasis on the most dependable being human resources.
Long Live
the Federal Republic of Nigeria
