Federal Polytechnic Bauchi Breaks Ground on New Male Students' Hostel

The Federal Polytechnic Bauchi has commenced construction on a new male students' hostel through a public-private partnership with African Partners Plus Limited Lagos.

The project, valued at N4 billion, will see the institution contribute 25% of the total cost, amounting to N1 billion, courtesy of the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TetFund) special intervention.

The Build, Operate, and Transfer (BOT) project has already begun with site clearance and excavation works, which are nearly completed. This development aims to address the pressing need for hostel accommodations in the institution.

The partnership between Federal Polytechnic Bauchi and African Partners Plus Limited Lagos was formalized through a signed agreement, marking a significant step towards enhancing the institution's infrastructure and providing students with a conducive living environment.

The new hostel is expected to improve the overall student experience, enhance security, and promote academic excellence. By providing modern facilities, the institution aims to attract and retain top talent, fostering a supportive learning environment that prioritizes student welfare and development .
