Adeyinka Adedipe, Benin
A former vice-president of Nigeria, Namadi Sambo, has Igbinedion University Okada, Edo State, for distinguishing itself in academic excellence and value-driven education for over two decades.
Speaking at the 22nd matriculation ceremony of the university, Sambo said the great feat achieved by the institution in creating entrepreneurs instead of job seekers attests to the philosophy of the founder and chancellor of the Institution, Dr. Gabriel Igbinedion.
The former vice-president said the security challenges in the country had some links with the massive job deficit, adding that IUO had set the pace for breeding skilled graduates with the ability to handle highly-skilled jobs.
