Kayode Ojo: Will assume the role of pro-chancellor at Federal University Lokoja, replacing Victor Ndoma-Egba.
Naija247 news understands that this strategic change aims to promote diversity and national cohesion in the management of Nigeria’s universities. According to Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, this move is part of President Tinubu’s initiative to strengthen governance in federal universities.
President Tinubu recently dissolved the governing board of Nnamdi Azikiwe University (UNIZIK) in Awka, Anambra state, over the appointment of an unqualified vice chancellor.
Bernard Odoh, the new vice chancellor, and Rosemary Ifoema Nwokike, the registrar, were also removed from their positions.
This leadership shake-up reflects President Tinubu’s commitment to reforming Nigeria’s education sector and ensuring effective governance in federal universities. Naija247 news will continue to monitor developments in this story and provide updates as necessary.
