AAU Management Credits Okpebholo’s Initiatives for University’s Growth, Stability

Ambrose Alli University (AAU) management has publicly lauded Governor Monday Okpebholo’s policy initiatives, crediting them with the significant transformation currently underway at the state-owned institution.

Comrade Mike Aladenika, Head of Corporate Communication at AAU, shared these sentiments with journalists in Benin City on Thursday, highlighting the positive impact of the governor’s actions.

“The resurgence we are witnessing at AAU is directly attributable to the efficient management of the Governing Council, a body appointed by Governor Okpebholo,” Aladenika stated. He emphasized the crucial role the council has played in steering the university toward positive growth and stability.

A tangible example of this positive change, according to Aladenika, is the ongoing renovation of previously dilapidated infrastructure. “The renovation of the dilapidated structures in the university has undoubtedly encouraged a more conducive environment for both teaching and learning,” he explained, underscoring the importance of a well-maintained campus for academic success.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that Governor Okpebholo dissolved the AAU Governing Council in November 2024, citing the need to reposition the institution for greater efficiency and effectiveness.

Aladenika further emphasized the difference in the current administration’s approach to filling vacant positions. “Unlike in the past, when vacant positions were often filled hastily, the new Governing Council now provides well-considered advice on such appointments,” he noted.

He confirmed that the positions of key principal officers, including the Vice-Chancellor and Bursar, currently held in acting capacity, have been officially advertised. “Interested applicants with the requisite qualifications are encouraged to apply, as per the advertisement issued by the Governing Council,” Aladenika confirmed, signaling a commitment to a transparent and merit-based selection process.

Finally, Aladenika highlighted the improved atmosphere on campus. “The new Governing Council has fostered a peaceful environment, with students and lecturers engaging in learning activities harmoniously,” he concluded, painting a picture of a university community united in its pursuit of academic excellence. This collaborative and peaceful environment underscores the positive impact of Governor Okpebholo’s policy initiatives on AAU.
