Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, has promised to provide necessary facilities for the accreditation of Enugu State College of Education (Technical) by the National Commission for Colleges of Education.
Ugwuanyi made the promise in Enugu on Monday while inspecting facilities at the College ahead of the visit by the accreditation team from the National Commission for Colleges of Education.
He assured the management and students of the college of his administration’s preparedness to fast track the ongoing building and road projects in the school.
He also assured them that the dilapidated sick bay at the college would be rehabilitated before the visit of the team to the institution within the month.
“College of Education Technical as an institution that nurtures future leaders will continue to be assisted by the state government through the provision of conducive environment to facilitate teaching and learning.
“As governor of Enugu State and visitor to the college, this request is hereby granted.
“In addition, government will consider alleviating the suffering of students as what I saw in the institution is not befitting at all,’’ he said.
The governor thanked the students for their support to his administration and promised to continue to uplift the institution.
Earlier in her address, the Chairman, Governing Council of the institution, Mrs Fidelia Njeze expressed delight at the governor’s visit to the institution, 21 days after the inauguration of the new governing board.
