The councils will go through a rigorous two-day retreat between Tuesday and Wednesday, to be facilitated the same day by a team of experienced resource persons under the coordination of an accomplished educator and administrator, former Vice Chancellor of Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto, Professor Lawal Suleiman Bilbis.
