The Vice Chancellor of the University, Rev. Fr. Prof Christian Anieke who was in attendance while addressing the members stated that the priority of the management is to make the University an institution that its graduates and many Nigerians will be proud of. He further said that the number of the University\u2019s graduates and students in foreign institutions has outnumbered those from any other institution in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accordingly, he enjoined the former students to avoid acts that will tarnish the image of the University and to be involved in acts that promotes the institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Ferdinand Anikwe<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A cultural expert and Director of Culture, Go-Uni -Dr. Ferdinand Anikwe has called for a concerted effort to create a true Nigeria that will stand as a nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Director who delivered a paper titled “EDUCATION AND NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT<\/strong>” alleged that Nigeria has alienated itself from the society and failed in its duty of caring for the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Dr. Anikwe, the nation\u2019s economy has gone to a dangerous level, arguing that nothing can change unless the needs of the teachers are met. He ended by stressing the need for the training of graduates that will be employers of labour rather than job seekers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Aaron Eze<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The pioneer Dean of the faculty and current Dean, School of Postgraduate studies,  Prof Aaron Eze while delivering his speech said that the faculty has graduated  seven sets of students and commended the alumni for identifying with the faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The highpoint of the event was the presentation and launching of the Faculty\u2019s year book by the Vice Chancellor of the university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a comment, the former Vice Chancellor of the Enugu State University of Science and Technology, ESUT, Prof. Charles Eze noted with appreciation that the faculty of education is setting the pace in the university. He expressed his joy that many of the university graduates are self-employed rather than waiting for paid employment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The graduates including Maxwell Nwokpoko and Rev. Fr. Christopher Onochie, while contributing, attributed the quality education and mentoring they received to the initiative and commitment of the Vice Chancellor -Rev. Fr. Prof. Christian Anieke some of the graduates.
