The National Union of Bauchi State Students (NUBASS) has requested Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed on the immediate construction of the collapsed bridge at Gubi campus of the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Bauchi which led to the death of four students on Tuesday.
The National President of the Union, Comrade Ibrahim Hashimu Abdullahi made the request when he led members of the union on a courtesy call to the Governor at the Government House, Bauchi.
He also appealed for the provision of health facilities and construction of boreholes in the university in order to alleviate the sufferings of the students.
Comrade Hashimu Abdullahi observed that regular payment of scholarship to students will no doubt contribute towards improving the standard of education in the state.
Responding, Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed appealed to members of the union to consider the recent collapse of the bridge at Gubi campus of the ATBU as an act of God.
The Governor who was represented by the Speaker, State House of Assembly, Alhaji Abubakar Yakubu Sulaiman assured them of government action on their requests.
