Newly elected deans of faculties in Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Anambra State, has commended the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Greg Nwakoby, for providing a level playing ground for contestants and ensuring there was transparency in the electoral process. After their emergence, Prof. Chris Nwabueze of the Faculty of Engineering, on behalf of the other elected deans, said: “I commend the Vice Chancellor for the innovation he brought into the university administration. Before now, we saw academic staff being stagnated without promotions, and even when they are promoted, the allowances due to them are not provided.
“But, since the VC arrived, he has succeeded in deploying visionary means to ensure prompt promotion of staff and payment of their allowances. This has also impacted students, because a motivated teacher will go on to give his best in the discharge of his duties. This is quite commendable.”
The election was adjudged one of the most credible deanship elections in the history of the institution.
