Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has congratulated Prof. Nazmat Surajudeen-Bakinde over her appointment as the Vice Chancellor of the University of Applied Science, Engineering and Technology (USET) in the Gambia.
The appointment, the governor said, is another testimony to the power of education, hard work, commitment, and integrity, and another reason that everyone, including the girl child, deserves a fair chance to have good education, the Governor says.
A statement signed by Rafiu Ajakaye, Chief Press Secretary to the Governor quoted him as saying that, “Her outstanding successes and strides in leadership positions do not come as a surprise, given the positive reviews she has received in the academics community over the years, including as the immediate past President of Offa Engineers,”.
According to the statement, Governor Abdulrazaq also wished the Offa-born Professor of electrical and electronics engineering a successful tenure as the USET’s new leader in the Gambia.
