Speaking at the inauguration on Tuesday in Abuja, the Minister of State for Education, Prof. Suwaiba Ahmad, said the college was created to promote agricultural education, innovation, and national development.

Ahmad said the appointment of the council members was based on their proven track record in leadership, national service, and commitment to development.

She said the institution was part of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda aimed at revitalising the agricultural sector through human capital development, research, and innovation.

The minister stressed the need for partnerships with local communities, private sector stakeholders, and international partners to achieve the college’s objectives.

She urged the council to prioritise transparency, effective governance, entrepreneurship, and demand-driven research.

“Your appointment is not just an honour, but a call to serve our country through transformational leadership in education and agriculture.

“This institution is strategically positioned to contribute to Nigeria’s drive for food security, youth employment, and sustainable economic growth,” she said.

Ahmad also tasked the council with developing a five- to ten-year strategic plan in synergy with the college’s management, while promoting peaceful collaboration.

While noting that the role does not come with substantial financial incentives, she reminded members of the national importance of their service.

“Your job is a national duty, build a legacy your grandchildren will remember,” she added.

Responding, Chairman of the Council, Prof. Oluwagbemi Tai, expressed appreciation to President Tinubu, the Ministry of Education, and the National Assembly for facilitating the establishment of the college.

“We want to build a centre of excellence that will be second to none in the region,” he said.

NAN reports that members of the governing council include Alhaji Labiru Kafur, Alhaji Yusuf Hassan, Prof. Abdusamad Jibia, Prof. Inuwa Usman, and Dr Mukhtar Habib, who serves as Provost of the college. (NAN)
