He said development is largely tied to its level of education, particularly, tertiary education especially in the fields of engineering, medicine, research, and innovation.

He said recent history of the Western region of Nigeria showed the greatest development came when free education which was introduced to the region.

The pioneer VC, however, promised that the institution would provide a high-quality and impact learning environment, with an uninterrupted academic calendar.

He also urged the matriculating students to give undivided attention to their studies.

He added that learning is an active process. Each student learns only what he or she does and shows interest in and not primarily what the instructor teaches.

In this age of Information, Communication and Technology, and access to the internet there is no reason not to be fully informed and learn rapidly.
