Why many Nigerian tertiary institutions lack groundbreaking research – Anchor varsity VC - Punch Newspapers

I understand. There is the general mentality that anything that is ours, doesn’t have originality. We don’t believe in ourselves. I remember a joke that a professor was airborne and during a slight storm, somebody told him that the aircraft was designed by one of his former students. He replied that he was comfortable in the aircraft because he knew that the one designed by his student could not attempt a flight. In other words, he did not mentor the students to have the capacity to do that.

The university recently had its fifth matriculation. How would you assess the journey since it began academic activities in 2017? By the grace of God, Anchor University has a very clear vision and mission statements, and I want to say that we are on course. We started academic activities in February, 2017, and our pioneer students graduated last year, and look forward to our maiden convocation shortly. Since we started, we have never gone on strike, and so our academic calendars are run as planned.

What is your reaction to the rising insecurity in the country, especially as students have become the target of abductors? It is a very sensitive issue. It is all about the problem of the heart of man. Coincidentally, we had a fellowship and I had the opportunity to minister on that. To act right, the heart must be right. People who cause a threat to other lives are human beings like us, it is just because they have problems with their hearts. So, whether it is in the South or North or anywhere, where people with animalistic nature are not transformed, a change may be difficult.
