Senator Binos Assures Numan Residents: Federal University of Education Bill on Track

In a recent gathering in Mayo-Belwa, Senator Binos Yaroe, who represents the Adamawa South Zone in the National Assembly, addressed the concerns of local residents regarding the status of the Federal University of Education bill for Numan. His comments came in light of speculation that the bill had been rejected by President Bola Tinubu, a claim he firmly refuted.

Clarifying Misunderstandings

Senator Yaroe took the opportunity to clarify the bill’s current status, stating that it is indeed still in progress. He explained that the president has not outright rejected it but has temporarily withheld his signature to allow for necessary corrections. This announcement was met with relief by the attendees, many of whom have been anxiously awaiting the establishment of the university in their region.

During the stakeholders’ feedback meeting, Senator Yaroe emphasized that the president had pointed out specific errors within the bill that need to be addressed before it can receive final approval. “The issues will be promptly addressed, and the bill resubmitted once the Senate reconvenes,” he assured the crowd, reinforcing his commitment to the project.

Key Corrections Needed

One significant error identified by the president relates to the assignment of land authority for the proposed university. The original draft mistakenly granted the state governor the power to allocate land for the institution, rather than the president, who is the rightful authority in such matters. “We mistakenly assigned the power to grant land authority to the governor instead of the president, who is the rightful visitor for the institution. We will rectify this error by replacing the governor with the president in the bill,” Senator Yaroe explained.

This clarification is crucial, as it highlights the importance of proper governmental procedures in the establishment of educational institutions. The senator reassured the constituents that once these corrections are made, the bill will be resubmitted for the president’s approval, paving the way for the long-awaited Federal University of Education in Numan.

A Vision for Education in Numan

The establishment of a Federal University of Education in Numan is seen as a transformative step for the region, promising to enhance educational opportunities for local students and contribute to the overall development of the area. Senator Yaroe’s dedication to seeing this project through reflects a broader commitment to improving educational infrastructure in Adamawa State.

Senator Yaroe’s proactive approach in addressing the concerns of his constituents demonstrates the importance of communication and transparency in governance. By keeping the public informed about the legislative process, he fosters a sense of trust and collaboration between the government and the people it serves.

As the senator prepares to make the necessary amendments to the bill, the people of Numan remain optimistic about the future. The Federal University of Education promises to be a cornerstone of educational advancement in the region, and with Senator Yaroe’s assurance, residents are hopeful that the project will soon become a reality.

Senator Yaroe’s commitment to education and community development resonates deeply with the people of Adamawa South, and his efforts to navigate the complexities of legislative processes reflect a dedication to serving his constituents. As the bill moves forward, the community will be watching closely, eager to see the fruition of a long-held dream.
