President Bola Tinubu has officially assented to the bill establishing the Federal University of Environmental Technology in Ogoni, Rivers State, a move aimed at fostering inclusive development across the nation.
D. H. Bwala, Special Adviser to the President, conveyed the news on X on Monday, expressing that the new institution will play a pivotal role in addressing the challenges of environmental technology. “It’s important to highlight that the Renewed Hope administration of President Bola Tinubu is all about righting the wrongs of the past and putting in place institutions to guard against future segregated developments,” Bwala said in his post.
This latest initiative follows the recent approval of another federal university to be located in the Southern Kaduna district of Kaduna State. According to Bwala, Tinubu’s vision of unity is reflected in his policies. “To Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, there are no minority ethnicities in Nigeria. He believes in the opening stanza of our national anthem, which says that though tribe and tongue may differ, in brotherhood, we stand,” Bwala emphasized.
