He advised well-to-do individuals in the society to take advantage of the new institution by taking their children to MAAUN so as to enable them secure quality education and contribute their quota towards the development of the country.
“I’m happy to say that MAAUN is one of the best private University if not the best because of the state of the art facilities that are put in place.So, I advise parents especially in this part of the country to bring their children here to study instead of taking them outside the country.
“Prof. Gwarzo should be honored by the Federal Government as no individual in the country has made investment in the sector like him, ” he said.
