New UniIlorin VC promises enhanced capacity, improved service delivery

The newly appointed Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, in Kwara State, Professor Wahab Egbewole, (SAN) has pledged that his administration will be fair to all Unilorites.

The Professor of International Law and Jurisprudence said his incoming administration would be fair to all in its dealing and be just in all circumstances.

A statement released in Ilorin on Sunday by the University’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr. Kunle Akogun, quoted the newly appointed Vice Chancellor as saying that “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.”

He appealed to them to join hands with the incoming administration to do the work collectively and in an all-inclusive manner.

Professor Egbewole commended the University Governing Council “for conducting a very thorough and painstaking exercise” that culminated in his appointment and assured the Council and the University community “that this appointment is for all of us as we will continue to put the University first in all our undertakings.”

He, therefore, appealed for the unflinching support of all Unilorites “in the discharge of the onerous tasks ahead.”

Prof. Egbewole 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.
