The
Vice Chancellor of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo
State, Prof. Igbekele Ajibefun has thanked members of the University
Community for their commitment to duties despite the current financial
situation in the country. He also restated his commitment to the
implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding signed with the
academic union.
In his words, “Let me assure you that I remain absolutely committed to the welfare of staff and students. I am not unaware of the challenges members of staff are facing vis-a-vis the irregular payment of salaries which necessitated the strike embarked upon by the members of Academic Staff Union three months ago.
“The strike was suspended via a MoU signed with the Academic Staff Union. Let me use this opportunity to assure you that we are very much committed to the MoU. As a way of demonstrating the resolve to keep faith with this MoU as regards the payment of salaries, on Friday, November 4, 2016, staff accounts were credited with one month salary upon receipt of subvention from the State Government. Management is hopeful of getting another subvention very soon.
“Now that the strike is over, Management is working on all areas to significantly raise the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) to supplement government subventions.
“It is the ultimate desire of Management to surpass the content of the MoU and sustain regular payment of salaries.
“Once again, I appreciate you all for your understanding and support for our University.”

Another Student Makes AAUA Proud
-Shines at Youth Service
Another feather of academic excellence
has been added to the already studded cap of Adekunle Ajasin University,
Akungba Akoko (AAUA), Ondo State, as one of its products, Oluwatobi
David Esan has been awarded a Certificate Of Merit in recognition of his
outstanding performance and contribution to the development of Ebonyi
State during the just ended National Youth Service year.
Esan, who is a graduate of Philosophy of AAUA, was recorded to have carried out a personal community development service by establishing a well stocked and furnished school library at his place of primary assignment.
The Ebonyi State government also commended the AAUA alumnus for training teachers of the school, and for also economically empowering people of the community by training them in the production of antiseptic and perfume. The inauguration of the project, the government noted, attracted dignitaries from across the state and was aired on local broadcast stations.
In a letter to the Vice Chancellor, Esan noted that he had always been a good ambassador of AAUA from his undergraduate days when he represented his Department and Faculty at several debating competitions and being the representative of his level from year one to the his final year.
He was also honoured by the National Association of Philosophy Students as the most critical Philosopher of the year in 2014.
Esan noted that AAUA made him what he is today, adding that he would continually strive to make the Institution proud.
Esan’s feat is coming on the heels of the superlative performance of other graduates of Adekunle Ajasin University who are thriving in their chosen career, including topping the chart for two consecutive years at the Nigerian law school.
