*Assalamu alaikum Warahamatulla,*
*Your Excellency Sir,*
*Executive Governor of Kano State*
*Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf,*
*Subject: Urgent Appeal for Rehabilitation of Government Technical College, Danbatta*
I write to humbly draw your attention to the current dilapidated state of *Government Technical College, Danbatta*. Since its commissioning in **2011** by then Commissioner of Education, *Barr. Faruk Iya Sambo, under the administration of Engr. Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso*, critical infrastructure—particularly *hostels, classrooms, kitchen, and dining halls*—have remained in *temporary and deteriorating conditions*.
The college consists of *four hostels* named after prominent leaders: *Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Mukhtar Adnan, Faruk Iya, and Aminu Kano*. These hostels are in dire condition and no longer offer safe or conducive accommodation for students.
On *11th July 2023*, during your current administration, the then Commissioner of Education, *Hon. Umar Haruna Doguwa*, visited the college and acknowledged the state of decay, assuring the school community that urgent interventions would follow. Sadly, almost a year later, *no tangible progress* has been made.
With the *rainy season approaching*, the risk to students' safety and academic welfare is growing rapidly. We respectfully appeal for your *swift intervention* to address these long-standing issues and restore a safe, stable learning environment for our future engineers and technicians.
With deep respect and gratitude,
Concerned Patriot and Old Student,
Government Technical College Dambatta.
