Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki has set a brand new target for staff and students of Edo State University, Iyamho, vowing to ensure the institution is one of the very best in global university ranking.
He revealed that his government’s vision for the university is for it to become a world-class university in ranking.
His words, “I want the university to strive hard as our bench mark is not the Nigerian standard but the world’s, as I want them in the next ranking to be one of the best in the continent before we go to the next level. As a state, we would continue to endow the university,”
“This university was set up along private sector standard. It is the modern way. It will encourage us to see how we can use the model to retool our other universities. It might be expensive but we can as a state put in all sorts of mechanisms and schemes to ease the burden on parents who have children in our universities.”
