GOV. Ahmed Ododo of Kogi has renewed the appointment of Prof. Salisu Usman for second term as Rector, Kogi State Polytechnic, Lokoja.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Usman was first appointed as Kogi poly rector by former Gov. Alhaji Yahaya Bello in 2021.

Usman’s reappointment was due to his superlative performance as rector of the institution over the last four years.

The rector, while reacting to his reappointment on Monday in Lokoja, thanked Gov. Ododo for acknowledging his modest contributions to the growth of the institution.

“I also appreciate the immediate past Governor, His Excellency, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, for bringing me on board as Acting Rector, after which my appointment was confirmed in 2021.

“I thank the Governing Council, Academic Board, Management, staff and students of the institution, for the invaluable support that assisted in the transformation of the Polytechnic thus far,” Usman said.

He promised to put in much more efforts in his second term, to strengthen the positive visibility of the institution.

Usman said that since he came on board, the institution had transformed with full accreditation of programmes that were stagnated for years.

He added there had been administrative reforms; restoration of discipline; general quality assurance; among others.

The Directorate of Public Relations and Protocol, led by Uredo Omale, congratulated the rector and wished him a more successful second term. (NAN
