LAUTECH VC Urges Students, Staff to Ensure Peace Reigns:
The Vice-Chancellor of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Prof. Adeniyi Gbadegesin, has urged students and members of staff of the institution to ensure that peace reigns in the school.
According to him, peace will enable the university to attain its loftier dreams.
He spoke during the institution’s convocation last Friday.
He said, “I will only be stating the obvious if I remind you that for growth and development to take place, a peaceful environment is a necessary condition. While we recognise the fact that LAUTECH has yet to tap its full potential, we must also realise that all stakeholders need to jettison any act or tendencies that could threaten the peace of the university.”
