The Pro Chancellor and Chairman of the 10th governing council of the Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO) Dr. Emmanuel Enemuo has commended the out going Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof. Cyril Asiabaka for placing the Institution to an enviable height of excellence during his tenure.
According to Enemuo, the institution which is the nation’s premier University Of Technology established in 1980 by former President Shehu Shagari’s administration is now the 8th in the ranking of Universities in the country by the National Universities Commission (NUC) as against its former 48th position.
This, he said, has given credence to the mantra of the institution, which is quest for excellence.
Enemuo stated this at a valedictory colloquium in honour of Asiabaka whose tenure expires this month as the 6th substantive Vice Chancellor of the university.
Prof. Asiabaka who took over the mantle of leadership of the University from the late Prof. Celestine Onwuliri in 2011 and is expected to hand over to the Deputy Vice Chancellor (Administration), Prof. Francis Chukwuemeka Eze.
“Prof. Asiabaka has brought about monumental physical development and infrastructure into FUTO and the University Is now being governed with strict sense of discipline, there are no more examination malpractices, selling of handouts, sexual harassment and cultism is now a thing of the past in FUTO.”
Enemuo however attributed the modest achievement of the out going Vice Chancellor to the unflinching support and cooperation of the members of the University Governing Council and enjoined them to extend same to the incoming Vice Chancellor.
