I give all the glory to God Almighty and express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported me throughout this journey of achieving the milestone of being awarded a Ph.D in Architecture.

“If you look critically, you can see that I studied Architecture right from day one in the university at UNIZIK, then my M.Sc. in the prestigious UNN and now PhD from the same UNN. That is to show you that all my life, it has always been Architecture. This has made me focused and determined to continue growing and improving as a core professional,” he said.

Furthermore, Chief Christian Asaga Nwali, whose endless philanthropic activities and provision of succour to downtrodden Nigerians have earned him chieftaincy titles such as the Ebubedike 1 of Unweka Ancient Kingdom of Ebonyi state, Odozie Obodo 1 of Ameka Ikwo, Uzochukwu Wara 1 of Ekpelu Kingdom in Ikwo LGA of Ebonyi state and Ide Jiulo 1 of Izzi Land, advised Nigerian youths, especially students, to be dedicated to their studies.

“School is not a scam. Don’t let anyone deceive you. Once you are focused on your studies as a student and get well educated, you can create jobs and be an employer of labour after graduation, instead of complaining of unemployment. It is important to know what you want in life and put your energy into it, you will surely achieve your heart desires,” he said.
