While addressing the gathering, the PPSMB boss expressed deep appreciation to the teaching and non-teaching staff of the school, describing them as the “unsung heroes” behind every student’s succes





“Your patience, mentorship, and sacrifices are the pillars upon which the achievements of this institution rest. May your labor never go unrewarded,” he stated.


He also thanked the parents for their trust and active involvement in their children’s academic journey, stressing that education is a shared responsibility between the government, schools, and families.


Mr. Penuel further acknowledged the transformational leadership of Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State, praising his administration’s investment in educational infrastructure, teacher training, digital learning, and comprehensive reforms aimed at raising standards in the sector.


In his address, the Principal of Universal Wisdom Academy, Mallam Umaru Ali, congratulated all prize winners, noting that their hard work and determination earned them well-deserved recognition.




The Proprietor of the Academy, Alhaji Muhammad Buba Bindir, expressed gratitude to all who attended the event. He disclosed that since its establishment in 2010, the school has grown to over 400 students, with 40% being orphans and 30% internally displaced persons (IDPs).
