The Management of Al-Istiqama University, Sumaila, Kano State, has concluded a plan to build a befitting 160-room male hostel in the university campus to be named after the President and Founder of Maryam Abacha American University of Niger (MAAUN), Prof. Adamu Abubakar Gwarzo.
The university has already requested Prof. Abubakar Gwarzo to slate a convenient date for the Ground-breaking Ceremony of Professor Adamu Abubakar Gwarzo 160 Room Male Hostel.
The request was contained in a letter dated Tuesday, 10 August 2021 signed by the Proprietor and Founder of Al-Istiqama University, Hon. Sulaiman A. Kawu Sumaila, a copy of which was made available to newsmen in Kano on Wednesday.
According to the letter, the University’s resolve to name the hostel after Prof. Abubakar Gwarzo is hinged on his consistent support, doggedness, understanding, and unequaled commitment to the education sector and human development in general.
“It is based on the above, coupled with your support to Al-Istiqama University, Sumaila, and the success you have recorded in university education, we request you to please accept the
honor and slate a convenient date for the historic event.
It added that the project was part of the university’s effort to provide a conductive, secured, and enabling environment for its students to function effectively.
“Please accept the assurances and respect of the proprietor and the University community,” the Proprietor/Founder of Al-Istiqama University said.
