{EDUCATION ZONE} ~ OAU TO MENTOR ATIBA UNIVERSITY FOR FIVE YEARS

Obafemi Awolowo University , Ile -Ife and Atiba University, Oyo , have reached an agreement on the mentorship of the new institution , which recently began its first academic semester.
Acting Vice -Chancellor of AUO , Prof. Sola Ehindero, made this known at a briefing organised by the institution as part of the activities marking its opening ceremony .
The vice -chancellor said the university, which was officially registered by the Nigeria University Commission in December 2017, became operational with 14 accredited courses in two faculties .
He said , “ Atiba University aligned itself with the global vision of providing educational opportunities for Nigerian youths to access quality , relevant and functional education based on merit , capacity and talent.
“ The university will be under the academic and administrative mentoring of OAU for a five - year probationary period . OAU will provide expert advice on some core academic and administrative issues . The choice of OAU is deliberate because OAU has established a long tradition of academic excellence and a high standard of behaviour which is expected to guide and nurture the new school into academic maturity. ”
Ehindero acknowledged the various challenges facing university education in Nigeria , stressing that to curb cultism and other vices among students , the school would operate a full boarding .
“ Cultism thrives in schools that do not screen their candidates well. Giving admission to candidates goes beyond their academic excellence . We are also checking cultism and other vices by ensuring all students live in the school hostel , ” he said .
