I want to congratulate the Acting Dean, Division of Student Affairs,
the Vice-Dean and the entire members of Division of Student Affairs for the trust imposed on
us by the University Management to hold this retreat programme.
With this arrangement, I believe the entire Division and Halls of Residence will be armed with details of repositioning for a

Therefore, I want to commend this synergy, and hope it gets sustained over time to help us further reposition the vision and mission of the University of the 21st century.
