The Adamawa State government has announced guaranteed employment for sixty budding engineers, fresh from completing their studies in India and subsequent national service.
These graduates, who benefited from a state-sponsored scholarship, visited the Governor's residence to express their gratitude to His Excellency, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri.
Speaking to the assembled press at Government House, Dr. Umar Umar Garba Pella, Commissioner for Education and Human Capital Development, relayed the graduates' sincere appreciation for the Governor's investment in their education.
He reminded those present that the scholarship initiative, launched in 2020, enabled Adamawa natives to pursue five-year engineering degrees in India.
The Governor, impressed by the students' academic achievements, has pledged to maintain the programme, ensuring future generations of Adamawa students have similar opportunities.
Dr. Pella further disclosed that preparations are underway for a new cohort of students to study in China, demonstrating the government's ongoing commitment to international education.
Tahir Iju Sama'ila, speaking on behalf of the graduating class, conveyed their profound thanks to the Governor and his cabinet for the invaluable opportunity to study abroad.
He highlighted the Governor's unwavering support, contrasting it with the neglect experienced by students from other states.
Mr. Sama'ila also urged his peers to maintain their dedication and strive for continued success in their careers.
