IN a surprise visit to the Borno Polytechnic, the State Governor, Prof. Babagana Zulum, has suspended the entire management of the Ramat Polytechnic Maiduguri for six months. As a former student of this polytechnic, a former rector, I have moral stakes in this polytechnic. Insha’Allah, I will not allow this polytechnic to rot during my era as the governor of Borno State. “I have directed the Commissioner for Higher Education, Science, Technology and Innovation to take over the affairs for the next six months. The ministry is to ensure that all the workshops and the laboratories are put back to use as soon as possible,” Zulum was quoted in the statement.
