“We have put in the highest level of preparation for the exam, thanks to the university management who has done so much by giving us all we need to ensure the success of the process.”
He further added, “We have done our best to prepare our students for the exams. We have one of the largest numbers of students that we have recorded in this programme so far, and we have taken care of all they need to make sure that they are successful. The students are also very prepared and based on that, and with the support of the management, I believe our students will be highly successful.”
The oversight of the examination process was also ensured by the presence of the Deputy Director, Dr. Ronke Saibu, and the Assistant Director, Dr. Waheed Akingbade. Their on-ground supervision provided an additional layer of assurance for the smooth conduct of the exams.
