Gombe State Governor Muhammad Inuwa Approves Over 100% Increase In Scholarship Allowance.


Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has approved an over 100 percent increase in the scholarship allowance for students across all categories, reaffirming his administration’s strong commitment to education, inclusivity, and youth empowerment.
The approval fulfills the governor’s assurance during his media chat on July 21, 2025, where he promised a significant increment and timely payment of scholarships. The move underscores his passion for good governance and his vision to make education the foundation of Gombe State’s development agenda.
Since assuming office, the Inuwa-led administration has declared a state of emergency on education, introducing bold reforms and strategic investments aimed at revamping the sector. His developmental policies are inspired by zeal and a sincere desire to fulfill his promises toward lifting Gombe State to greater heights of growth and progress.
In his kind leadership, Governor Inuwa Yahaya has reviewed and expanded the list of beneficiaries to include those pursuing PhD, MSc, PGD, BSc, HND, NCE, ND, and Certificate programmes.
In a show of inclusiveness, the governor has also approved an increment in allowances for persons with disabilities, shortly after the establishment of the Gombe State Commission for Persons with Disabilities. This step reaffirms his statement about giving people with disabilities “a gentle nudge” to encourage their active participation in education and development.
It will be recalled that Governor Inuwa Yahaya had cleared all backlog scholarship allowances for students in previous years, a move that affirmed his readiness to strengthen student welfare and ensure the smooth pursuit of their academic goals. This consistency highlights his enduring zeal in delivering transparent and people-centered governance.
Meanwhile, the Gombe State Scholarship Board has announced that the verification and screening exercise for all eligible students will commence in due course, with specific dates and modalities to be made public soon.
Governor Inuwa Yahaya’s recent approval once again reflects his unwavering vision for a progressive, inclusive, and education-driven Gombe State, where students are empowered to achieve their full potential.
