UNIABUJA new VC Pledges to Restore Order

The new Vice-Chancellor of University of Abuja, Prof. Michael Adikwu, has pledged to restore order in the institution by reconciling warring factions.

“The running of a university is a pilgrimage, it is a continuous process. I will ensure there is best academic standard in the school. As I was informed the school is currently on forced vacation, so the first approach is to see how we can bring back both the lecturers and students of the school, so that normal academic activities resume soonest.”

“It is imperative to reconcile everybody in this university because without reconciliation we cannot move forward. We should not allow our school to be politicalized and education should be used to solve socio-economic problems and not to create more problems. I am going to work out modality to ensure stability in University of Abuja community,” he stated.

It would be recalled that Prof. Micheal Adikwu a Lecture from the University of Nigeria Nsukka on 1st July took over from Professor James Sunday Adelabu whose tenure expired on June 30th, 2014.

Before his assumption to office the school was temporarily closed down following protest by students against the strike action embarked on by the ASUU chapter of the institution.
