The new pro-chancellor and chairman, Governing Council of University of Lagos (UNILAG), Akoka, Lagos, Dr Lanre Tejuoso, has made public what he called the three-point agenda that the council has for the university.
He announced the agenda in his maiden address at the just concluded 51st convocation ceremonies of the university where bachelor and postgraduate degrees, and diplomas were conferred on the 2018\2019 graduating set of the institution.
He tagged the agenda which he said would serve as guide for the new council in performing its constitutional roles, as “Three Cs” and identified them as Creativity, Cooperation and Consolidation.
Tejouso, an alumnus of UNILAG, was appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari on April 10 to succeed Dr Wale Babalakin (SAN), a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, who resigned his appointment following an unresolved crisis between the council and the management last year
Describing his appointment as homecoming having graduated from the university almost 35 years ago, Tejuoso emphasised that the mantra would certainly serve as a driving force to take UNILAG to greater heights.
He lauded what he called the great strides recorded by successive managements and governing councils of the institution, saying such had taken the institution to global recognition.
He said the council would work and cooperate with the Senate and the management and other sections of the university in a way that would jointly move the university forward appreciably.
He advised the graduating students to impact positively on the society and also be good ambassadors of the university.
In his own address at the event, tagged: A breath of fresh air, the vice chancellor, Professor Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, said the coming in of the new pro-chancellor had brought a new life to the institution and promised sustenance of the peaceful atmosphere.
