He described the  matriculating students as “the Chosen Ones” saying the only way to reciprocate this privilege is to totally dedicate themselves to their studies and ensure that they are not distracted by any negative vice that can cut short your dreams.

“The onus now lies on you to ensure that you strive hard to further raise the bar. This can only be achieved when you dress responsibly, eschew violence, cultism, drug addiction, prostitution, examination malpractice and other vices that are inimical to your success as a student of our institution.” he said

The VC who prides the Institution as an institution  that propels her students to pursue their dreams called on parents to join hands in bringing the best out of the students

During his motivational speech to the students, Dr. Wusu Ashiribo Senapon, noted that academic excellence goes beyond making good grades or actively participating in class but can best described as the optimal development of one’s intellectual capacities and skills in service to mankind.

“Academic excellence entails going the extra mile to achieve your set goals. It requires a thorough follow through.” he said
