Kwara Assembly Calls for Revitalisation of Technical and Vocational Colleges

Date: 2024-11-07

The Kwara State House of Assembly has urged Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to revitalise and adequately equip technical and vocational colleges across the state.

Speaker Engineer Yakubu Danladi-Salihu voiced this appeal during Tuesday's plenary session while presenting the House's resolution on a motion titled "The Need to Promote and Encourage Technical Education in Kwara State,” put forth by Mallam Mohammed Baba Salihu, representing Okuta/Yashikira Constituency.

Danladi-Salihu stressed the importance of partnerships with industries to provide students with practical training opportunities and called on the state government to consider establishing a Board of Technical and Vocational Education under the Ministry of Education.

The proposed board would be responsible for implementing policies of the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) concerning technical and vocational training in Kwara.

Debating the motion, Salihu, who sponsored the bill, highlighted that the current state of technical colleges has impacted the schools' efficiency and led to wastage of human and material resources.

He noted that Kwara's technical colleges in Patigi, Erin-Ile, Esie-Iludun, and Ilorin have a legacy of producing skilled professionals in engineering fields who continue to excel.

Other lawmakers who spoke in support of the motion emphasized that investment in technical education would equip individuals with valuable skills, creating productive citizens and fostering economic growth and development in Kwara State and Nation at large.
