Afe Babalola, the founder of Afe Babalola University , advocated against the division of Nigeria into several small nations on Monday, saying that its enormous number of tribes and languages are not responsible for underdevelopment.
“However, China which is like an elephant to an ordinary sheep or dog has today taken advantage of the population and made the country a huge success and one of the first 3 civilized countries in the world.“Those who are advocating that Nigeria should be Balkanised should learn from how China took advantage of its size, population and manpower to become one of the leading civilised and industrialised countries in the world.
She said the purpose of the conference was to provide an opportunity to share information and best practices on innovative technologies, and knowledge to strengthen South-South scientific cooperation between faculty, students and researchers in China and African Universities.She also passed votes of confidence on Afe Babalola, for being a key facilitator of China-Nigeria cooperation in education and science and technology for sustainable development.
“China is willing to support the empowerment of Nigerian youth employment, and through Chinese language + vocational skills education, provide more Nigerian youth with the opportunity to work in Chinese enterprises and even serve as the companies’ administrators.”The Governor of Ekiti State, Biodun Oyebanji also commended ABUAD for living up to aspirations of being a world-class university of local and global relevance.
