College of Education, Ankpa to Start Degree Programme This Year

Dr Mrs Agnes Okai - Commissioner for Education
All processes including administrative, structural and academic that would enable Kogi State College of Education to commence degree progamme are on top gear.
The Provost of the institution, Professor Danladi Musa, disclosed this in an exclusive chat with The Graphic in his office.
Professor Musa averred that if there is anything that is of greater concern to the management for now, it is how to get the degree programme running this year.
He revealed that virtually all the courses for the degree programme have already been accredited, saying that the administration of Captain Idris Wada had been quite helpful in that direction.
The provost, who maintained that the college is doing everything possible to maintain high standard, noted that the institution remains top in the ranking of the supervising body of Colleges of Education in the country.
When the institution commences its degree programme, the provost expressed optimism that it would reduce the problem often faced by teachers in securing university education in their quest to further their education.
He noted that the institution has been alive to its responsibility of training quality teachers, pointing out that when it starts running degree programme, it would have moved a step further.
Professor Musa who revealed the plan of the management in the physical development, said plans are underway to embark on massive construction works in the institution, adding that the projects are being supported by the state and other education-sponsoring bodies.
The professor also spoke on measures being taken to secure lives and property in the institution, pointing out that before long, restrictions would be placed on vehicular movement on the campus.
The college, he disclosed, is also eagerly preparing for NACEGA competition scheduled to hold within the year and according to him, going by the level of preparation, the college would make a good showing at the competition.
The provost, who charged the students of the college to imbibe the culture of academic hard work, however, cautioned them to shun all kinds of moral decadence so as not to dent their image and that of the college.
