The Vice-Chancellor of Benue State
University, Makurdi, Prof. Msugh Kembe has appealed to Benue sons and
daughters to contribute to the development of the University.
Prof. Kembe made the appeal while
taking delivery of assorted volumes of books and journals donated to the
University by the Director of Monetary Policy, Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN), Mr. Moses Tule.
He expressed appreciation to Mr. Tule
for making the donation of books without being promoted and appealed to
other people of goodwill, particularly Benue people in strategic
positions, to emulate the donor.
He listed possible areas of such
interventions as including infrastructural development and endowment of
professorial chairs in the various disciplines of studies.
Earlier, the donor, Mr. Moses Tule, who
was represented but the Director, Centre for Development and Linkages,
Benue State University, Prof. Terfa Ortese, had stated that, the
donation was part of his contribution to enhance the University’s
capacity of meeting its mandate of Teaching, Learning and Research.
He assured the Vice-Chancellor that he
would continue monitoring developments in the University so as to know
possible areas of additional intervention for future needs.
Meanwhile, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof.
Msugh Kembe also yesterday received members of the National Universities
Commission (NUC) Accreditation team for two courses in the Faculty of
Management Sciences; Accounting and Business Management.
The leader of the four member
accreditation team, Prof. Jane Ande observed that the Programmes offered
by the University to the public rank high compared to similar ones
anywhere in the world.
While receiving the team, the
Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Msugh Kembe, had noted that accreditation is not a
witch hunting exercise but a routine peer review of courses to uphold
standards.
He therefore urged them to conduct the exercise with an open mind and come out with frank observations.
