The Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on University Education, Abubakar Hassan Fulata, has assured the Vice Chancellors and management team of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi and Federal University Kashare, Gombe State, that efforts would be made to remove universities and other tertiary institutions from Band A group of electricity consumers.
He noted that it is inappropriate for a government institution to spend more than its income on a revenue generating facility like a quest house. 'Will it be appropriate to get less than N800,000 from the school quest house and spend over N5 million to maintain it?', Ogene queried. Adamu Gamawa, one of the committee members, speaking on the budget performance of Federal University Kashare, Gombe, said extra-budgetary spending is not allowed as it is unconstitutional.
