Senate passes bill to establish Federal College of Agriculture in Borno
The bill was passed for a third reading during plenary on Thursday after the Senate considered a report presented by its Committee on Agricultural Colleges and Institutions.
The sponsor of the bill, Senator Mohammed Ali Ndume, who represents Borno South Senatorial District, said the proposed institution would promote agricultural education and improve farming practices in the area and across the country.
“Shani, in Borno South, is known for the cultivation of rice, tomatoes and onions. The area also shares boundaries with Adamawa and Bauchi states, which are important agricultural zones,” he said.
The senator described the passage of the bill as a major achievement, particularly as the current legislative session approaches its end.
