She noted that the prestigious recognition highlighted Prof. Gwarzo’s dedication and commitment to advancing education and his impact on the entire academic community.

Dr. Hajo Sani, who commended Prof. Gwarzo for investing hugely in higher education, further lauded him for singlehandedly establishing three universities in Nigeria, saying two of her children are beneficiaries of the universities.

In his remark at the occasion, Prof. Gwarzo expressed gratitude to the French university for the honour done to him and reaffirmed his commitment to advancing the cause of education beyond the borders of the African continent.

He, however, called on all African intellectuals in diaspora to return to Africa after graduation in order to contribute their quota towards the development of Africa, noting that the entire continent is still a virgin place that needed significant development.

The award, he said, would further inspire him in promoting global education and ensuring that the MAAUN Group of Universities continues to lead in delivering quality education for the socio-economic development of the society.

The presentation of the Award of Excellence served as a tangible acknowledgement of Prof. Gwarzo’s outstanding contributions and his unwavering commitment to the development of higher education on the global stage.
