This milestone marks yet another significant achievement in the president’s tenure, solidifying his reputation as a dedicated leader committed to the welfare of the student body.
For years, students at the University of Abuja have voiced their frustration over the absence of a dedicated space for their union at the main campus, viewing it as a glaring oversight by the institution. The lack of an official secretariat has long been a source of discontent, with many describing it as an insult to their collective voice and a barrier to addressing critical student issues effectively. That chapter of neglect closed today with the handover of the keys, a victory that students have eagerly awaited.

I am proud to have been part of making this dream a reality.” His words resonated with the SUG leaders, reflecting both the gravity of the moment and his personal investment in the cause.
The student community has greeted the news with overwhelming enthusiasm. Moses Obute, a final-year student, shared his relief and gratitude: “It’s about time we had a proper secretariat. This will make a huge difference in how we organize and tackle our issues. Kudos to the president for pushing this through.” His sentiment echoes the widespread appreciation for Comr. Bashir’s efforts, which have breathed new life into the Students Union.
The establishment of the Students Union Secretariat ushers in a new era for student governance at the University of Abuja. More than just a building, it symbolizes the recognition of the student union’s vital role and lays the groundwork for stronger advocacy and representation. With this feat, Comr. Dr. Bashir Abdullahi Muhammed has etched his name into the annals of the university’s history as a leader who not only stood for the students but delivered for them.
