“The disciplines of other promoted staff include theatre arts, medical biochemistry, public administration, medicine, engineering, science and environmental education and geography.”

Congratulating the staff, the vice-chancellor, Professor Abdul-Rasheed Na’Allah, said their promotion was a testimony to their   continued dedication, hard work and discipline.

Na’Allah said the university management, with the support and guidance of council, is determined to ensure that every staff gets promotion as and when due.

He said, “I must congratulate all our staff who have been promoted by council at its 92nd and 93rd regular meetings.  No doubt, this is a demonstration of hard work, diligence and determination on their part. These are virtues we encourage and promote among our staff at the University of Abuja.

“I urge the staff to continue to work even harder because this rank is not the end of academic prowess. These positions call for more hard work, responsibility and breaking newer grounds. You must show that this is the beginning of greater things to come from you,” Na’Allah said.
