Admiralty Varsity Gets New VC, Promises Impactful Institution

The new vice chancellor, Admiralty University of Nigeria, ADUN, Prof Christopher Ogbogbo, has vowed to nurture a university that is locally impactful and internationally competitive.

He stated this yesterday in Delta State on the occasion of his inauguration as the second vice chancellor of the institution, promising to further consolidate the foundations of the university for sustained growth and development.

He said doing that would require the courage to reconfigure academic tradition to suit the purpose and be ready to jettison ineffectual ideas, meaning the university must cultivate and be defined by a tradition of academic excellence that revolves around the 3H principles of education.

While pledging to work tirelessly to propel the institution to greater heights and positive visibility, Ogbogbo said everyone must have the courage to dream big, be zealous about actualizing their aspirations, and be ready to reconfigure the boundaries of scholarships for the anticipated future.

“To the staff, we have a responsibility to build a community of scholars that will be known for cutting-edge knowledge production and dissemination. I owe you the duty to support and to empower you to achieve your full potential.
