Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the governor, Ahmed Tukur, disclosed this on Saturday, at the Government House in Lafia, while addressing newsmen.
According to him, the gesture is part of the state government’s commitment to provide conducive environment for learning, both for teachers and students, just as he noted that the mattresses would be distributed to the 28 boarding schools across the state.
According to him, “the administration of Governor Umaru Tanko Al-makura considers education a topmost priority and accords it special attention at all times.”
Tukur also noted that apart from the beds and mattresses, the state government would distribute 38,000 furniture and other instructional materials to schools across the state.
