Yours sincerely was handy to receive the award on behalf of the University Management, ably lead by Distinguished Prof Onyemachi Maxwell Ogbulu .
Now that we have something good and commendable to celebrate about ABSU in particular and Abia State in general, can we please drop our monumental “AKPOR” and share in the moment of joy and success. Can we all carry this good news the same way we spread bad news, in Abia State.
That would be equity and fairness.
