Bauchi Lawyer Backs Conversion of ATBU to Conventional University for Regional Development
Bauchi lawyer Jibrin Jibrin endorses the conversion of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU) from a technology-focused institution to a conventional university. The proposal, supported by Senator Shehu Buba, aims to expand ATBU's academic mandate beyond technology disciplines to include law, medicine, education, and more.
Jibrin highlights the advantages of this conversion for Bauchi State's educational standards, employment opportunities, and regional development. The move is seen as a way to reduce the financial burden on families and boost local economies.
The former chairman of the Nigerian Bar Association in Bauchi emphasizes that the conversion will not diminish ATBU's technological legacy.
