UNIMAID gets VC

The Governing Council of the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) has announced the appointment of Prof Ibrahim Njodi as new Vice Chancellor of the institution for a five-year term. The announcement was made following the approval of his appointment by the Federal Government.
The valedictory ceremony for the former VC,  Prof Mala Daura, was held at El Kanemi Hall of the university.
In his remark, Prof Daura lamented that the Boko Haram insurgency had taken a huge toll on the institution as some of members of staffs and students had been killed while others left the university.
Daura said he had implemented 80 per cent of the recommendations in the white paper of the visitation panel to the university.
Njodi praised members of staff of the institution for their support to the out-going VC, urging them to stand by the university at all times. He assured them that he would do his best to move the university forward.
Speaking on the tenure of the out-going VC, a student, Idris Suleiman, said: “The former Vice Chancellor did his best especially in the areas of security and infrastructural development. We now have new faculties at the faculties of Education and Pharmacy and a new College of Medical Sciences, new lecture theatres and many others. Electricity and water supply in the university are now stable. We are optimistic and hopeful that the new Vice-Chancellor will work hard to surpass his achievements.
