So, be deliberate and conscious about anything you do. “I want to encourage others to do more to enhance students development in he state. ” Honestly, I am being challenged personally and I use this medium to call on my Honorable Colleagues at State House of Assembly and elected chairmen and councilors at the grassroots to prioritize students welfare in their own little ways.”

“It gladdens my heart to see what is happening today, in contribution towards education in this faculty, a donation by Victor Olojede. The truth is not about the duration but donations.

Let’s all contribute our quota to the development of education in this institution and the state at large.”
