Governor Agabus who was a guest at the 59th Convocation of Theological College of Northern Nigeria TCNN, held at the college in Bukuru, Jos South local government area of plateau state on Friday 24th November 2023.

He further said aside from security which is currently receiving adequate attention of his administration, the government of Taraba State has also declared state of emergency on education which was hitherto in a sorrow state before the coming of his administration which necessitated the introduction of free education from primary to secondary schools in the state.

He said the actions of the government is predicated on the belief that education is the bedrock for any meaningful development of any country in general and Taraba State in particular. 

He stressed that his administration having known the importance of peace and education, we strived hard to ensure that everything work together for the  over all development of the citizens of Taraba State.

Speaking on the 59th Convocation of the college, he expressed dismal over the attitude of the Alumni of the college that all abandoned the institution immediately after graduation from the college.

“My greatest dismal is the attitude of the leadership of the TEKAN Churches who are the custodian of the college, l am so disappointed that I only saw few of them in attendance.”

He challenged the graduates of the school scattered all over the world to remember to keep the oath they took, because is one thing to take an oath, is another thing to keep to the oath.

Emmanuel called on all the pastors who passed through the college to leave by example and make sure they contribute their quota to the growth and development of TCNN.

He said the appeal is necessary because the institution is the only Theological College that is currently existing in the Northern Nigeria, urged the pastors and students that has benefited from it to show commitment financially, morally and spiritually.
