VICBHE: more LAUTECH staff listed for varsity's status

There are strong indications that there were other erudite academics, aside the number of staff of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso, Oyo State, who participated in the just concluded Module 6 of a capacity training programme, which held in Abuja, between November 1 and December 9, 2022.

The programme was organized by the Virtual Institute for Capacity Building in Higher Education (VICBHE), an online based institute created by the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). It was designed based on "Development and Implementation of University Laws”.

At the end of the programme, Professor Tesleem Asafa of the Institution was declared overall best out of over three hundred participants across Institutions in the country. Asafa reportedly scored 98.7% to top the class. 

Most of the other participants from LAUTECH also scored Distinctions+. Those listed in the earlier publication included: the Director of Academic Planning (DAP), Prof. Bolanle Aishat Akinwande, Professor Jacob Gbemiga Adewale, Professor Stephen Olatunde Olabiyisi and Professor Isiaka Adewale Emiola.

However, eye witnesses at the event have revealed that more jewels dotted the LAUTECH crown at the programme. The emerging list included the Institution's Director of Quality Assurance, Prof. Olusegun Adebayo Ajala, Deputy Librarian, Dr. Olatundun Oyewumi, Professor Christianah Olaniyi and Professor Ismail Oladosu.

The programme was designed by erudite academics that was led by one-time Executive Secretary of National Universities Commission (NUC), Prof Peter Okebukola, who was the Facilitator-General for the institute.

Elated Acting Vice-Chancellor of LAUTECH, Professor Mojeed Olaide Liasu in giving kudos to all the stars admonished others to always push forward by registering and participating at similar events in future.
