She charged the students to be courageous and show commitment to their studies since it remained a veritable path way to successful and purposeful future.
“You need to be bold to speak in the public, don’t be afraid, even if what you are saying is not correct you will be corrected. Going through university system is part of training needed to be acquired for greater heights. Dr Oyebanji added.
The first lady however promised her continuous visit to the department, to lecture the students alongside the other lecturer attached to the course for the semester.
