    The Vice Chancellor-designate of the University of Ilorin, Prof. Wahab Egbewole (SAN), has assured the institution’s community of fairness to all in his administration’s dealings with them in all circumstances.

    According to a statement in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital, on Sunday, by the University’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr Kunle Akogun, the newly appointed VC said: “The University of Ilorin is greater than all of us and we want to extend our hands of fellowship to all our colleagues who also applied for this post as I appeal that you should all join hands with us to do this work collectively and in an all inclusive manner.”

    Egbewole, a Professor of Jurisprudence and International Law, however, commended the University Governing Council “for conducting a very thorough and painstaking exercise that culminated in his appointment, assuring the Council and the University community that the appointment is for all as we all continue to put the University first in all our undertakings,” while also appealing for the unflinching support of all and sundry in the discharge of the onerous tasks ahead.

    The VC designate said: “Our students are our pride and we will continue to run a student-friendly regime with emphasis on improved work ethics and zero tolerance for corruption in all its ramifications.

    “We give kudos to the workers of this great University for their untiring efforts in ensuring that our system continues to run in spite of the challenges.

    “We will continue to give premium to the training and re-training of the workforce while the welfare of the workers will be given priority.

    “Our efforts at improving the quality of research will lead to a few innovations in that regard and we implore the concerned staff to see us as partners in progress with a view to ensuring enhanced capacity and improved delivery.

    “We want to appreciate the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Sulyman Age Abdulkareem, and pray for a peaceful transition to move our University to the next level.”
