President/Vice-Chancellor of Babcock University in Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Professor Afolarin Olutunde Ojewole, has been conferred with the Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Local Government and Public Administration (CILGPA), in appreciation of his drive and commitment towards strengthening the public administration landscape in Nigeria
The induction ceremony which took place at the President’s boardroom in the University’s main campus in Ilishan-Remo, came with a promise from Professor Ojewole to be “a vanguard and voice of the institute around the world."
He also revealed plans of working on a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with CILGPA to offer opportunity for Public Administration students to obtain a professional certificate alongside their university degree.
"We want our Public Administration graduates not to graduate with only a university degree but to cap it with a professional certificate so they can go into the labour market with two certificates," he added.
Representing the President of CILGPA's Governing Council, Professor A.M. Awotokun, Dr. Uche Okereke welcomed Professor Ojewole as a Fellow with a prayer that the Institute would always produce “the right people to serve the country in various capacities."
“The institute is open to signing an MoU with Babcock University, which would benefit students,” he said.
