Anambra State Governor, Prof Charles Soludo, has asked for partnership with the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) to help the state’s tertiary institutions on delivery of critical intervention infrastructures.
According to Soludo, synergy between Anambra state and TETFund will be highly impactful.
The governor stated this during a courtesy call on the Executive Secretary of TETFund, Sonny Echono, in Abuja.
TETFund is a scheme established by the Federal Government in 2011 to disburse, manage and monitor education tax to government-owned tertiary institutions in Nigeria.
Soludo expressed his administration’s dream of working with stakeholders at all levels especially the Federal Government who is a major player.

The governor said that when all efforts are disjointed and unharmonious, the deliverables will not be achieved. He added that synergy and coordination are imperative.
“I will like us to work together in a lot of areas we are interested in; and in a few years to come, we will be able to say that we delivered something tangible with the TETFund partnership,” said Soludo.
He applauded TETFund for its intervention projects within the country, stressing that the Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Anambra Polytechnic Mgbakwu and College of Education, Nsugbe are desirous of such partnership.
Mr. Echono assured that the fund will continue to deliver on its core mandate of filling in the gaps infrastructure-wise in tertiary institutions.
