The Vice-Chancellor of Kwara State University, Professor Shaykh-Luqman Jimoh, has addressed the student body regarding the importance of protecting the university’s reputation after some students were seen in videos wearing matriculation gowns and behaving inappropriately.
Dear KWASUites,
I write to address you all on a matter of importance, that of protecting the name and integrity of Kwara State University. You will all have seen the videos of some students portraying your institution in a bad light. The students were wearing Kwara State University’s matriculation gowns and depicting themselves as unworthy to be students of an institution of higher learning.
This is not just a disservice to all the hard work your lecturers have put in to groom you to be worthy individuals who will command respect anywhere in the world. It is a ridicule of the image and integrity of the processes of the institution, which are founded on principles of excellence. KWASU is yours! You will, like the thousands who have graduated from Kwara State University, hold her certificate, go around the world with it, and do great things. The integrity of Kwara State University is ours to protect. It is all of our responsibility to uphold this university as her name will continue to be a part of our history, both as student and as staff.
As a University, we are committed to upholding the excellence with which the institution was founded. We will resist any attempt to trivialise the hard work of many years by anyone from any quarters. The students in those videos have been identified and will be made to face disciplinary actions. This is to caution them and others from trivialising what should be treated with honour.
I must reiterate that KWASU belongs to you, KWASU belongs to me, KWASU belongs to all of us. We must protect her name and image. I urge you all, my dear students, to collectively resist any motivation to cast your institution in any negative light.
There are thousands of KWASU graduates spread all around the world doing great feats in different areas. Soon, you all too will go into the world holding the KWASU certificate, and I know you would be proud to say you hold a degree from Kwara State University as your predecessors have shown the world that the KWASU graduate is an excellent and formidable individual.
I, once again, urge you to be law abiding and focus on being the best you can be. On our part, we will spare nothing to ensure you become the best version that you can be.
I look forward to seeing you all do wonderfully well.
Professor Shaykh-Luqman Jimoh
