Performing the ceremony in the presence of students from different tertiary institutions across the country, the GOSSA National President said the honour becomes necessary in view of the fact the administration of Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya to which the SSG is a party has perform credibly well in the area of students welfare.
“The first issue we made emphasis during our initial visit to you sir has to do with the non payment of students scholarship from 2016 to 2017 academic session up until 2020 when His Excellency made the payment with help of the SSG who have helped in the struggle”.

The Secretary to the Gombe State Government Professor Ibrahim Abubakar Njodi says students and by extension the youths have become the symbol of his movement.
Professor Njodi said the administration of Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya is left with no other choice than to revamp the education sector which has suffered years of neglect from previous administration in the State.
“Our concern has been predicated on fact that there was a dangerous pointer that if you want to destroy a society you destroy the Education. Don’t shoot anybody don’t send any nuclear bomb, if you destroy the Education system is a matter of time they will begin to fall and the whole system will collapse”.
He regretted the non challant attitude displayed by the immediate paste administration towards the educational sector saying such policy direction can spell doom to the intellectual development of an individual and by extension that of the entire society.
“Today we are living witnesses we have started renovating our schools we have started bringing back sanity and life to our schools, the President has said it we have brought up the payment of scholarship up to 2020 and we are not going to stop”.
Professor Njodi said the administration of Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya is committed towards bequeathing a State where young people can walk with their shoulders high.
