The PDP aspirant noted that for any society to progress, the educational needs of the people must be given a topmost priority. He emphasized that all those qualified would be given due attention and opportunity to harness their potentials in life through education.
Dr. Gwamna who is also the Sardaunan Gombe, said he was concerned about the long time effect of not educating the youths. He therefore encouraged relevant stakeholders to assist in plucking the potentials of the youths through educational empowerment.
Dr. Gwamna said he conceptualised education as key agender for the development of the state. His effort to boost the capacity of the people in this direction had been ongoing through his JIG foundation, which would now be expanded as part of his human capital development agenda.
