Vice of Chancellor of Sa’adu Zungur University Professor Fatimah Tahir has said the support given to the institution by Bauchi State Government under the leadership of Governor Bala Mohammed, have been very instrumental to the progress and success of the university towards achieving academic excellence.
Professor Fatimah Tahir made the declaration during the official launching of Career Service Centre, Entrepreneurship Development Centre and Commissioning of 500KVA Generator at Yuli Campus of the university.
The Vice Chancellor while delivering her welcome address, recalled the numerous support of the state government which helped towards ensuring effective and efficient service delivery.
Professor Tahir therefore commended the state governor, saying, “Let me first extend our deepest appreciation to His Excellency, Senator Bala Mohammed (Kauran Bauchi), Executive Governor of Bauchi State and our Visitor, for his strategic leadership, enduring support, and unflinching commitment to the progress of this University.”
“His investment in education continues to inspire the direction and depth of our institutional growth,” she added.
The 500KVA Generator is fully financed by the University, which reinforces its drive for operational resilience. It will ensure stable electricity supply in Yuli Campus across essential academic and administrative units—fostering productivity, research, and digital connectivity.
Recall that recently, the university has received a financial boost by the Bauchi State Governor Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, which helped in addressing most of the institution’s financial challenges, and reposition the university to effectively compete with its counterparts across Nigeria.
The governor also invest in the institution’s infrastructure through construction of five major roads within the main campus in Gadau, a development which enhanced accessibility, improved convenience, and create a more conducive learning environment for teaching, learning and research.
The VC therefore reaffirmed the university’s commitment to provide excellent services in line with the mission of Governor Bala Mohammed for quality and sound education.
