FAO Team Visits Federal Polytechnic Mubi for Strategic Assessment

The Federal Polytechnic Mubi recently hosted a delegation from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) led by Dr. Nafisa. The team visited the institution on a strategic assessment tour to explore collaboration opportunities.

The FAO delegation met with the Polytechnic Management, led by the Deputy Rector (Academics), Dr. Mustapha Dauda Belel, to discuss the purpose of their visit. The team aimed to assess the institution's facilities and capacity in readiness for the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) program for veterinary paraprofessionals in Adamawa State.
