The Vice-Chancellor, Federal University Lokoja, Professor Olayemi Durotimi Akinwumi on Wednesday, 21st April, 2021 received a well detailed and comprehensive report on the University’s movement to the Felele Campus. The Committee, chaired by Professor Gbenga Ibileye, comprised very eminent Academic and Non-Teaching Staff of the University who have worked assiduously to deliver on their mandate within the stipulated time frame.

Reacting to the promptness in submitting the report, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Olayemi Akinwumi expressed satisfaction and thanked the Committee for a job well done. He stated that out of the Six (6) Critical Committees constituted and inaugurated on Monday, March 8, 2021 with diverse assignments, only the Committee on Review of the University's Movement to Felele Campus (Permanent Site) has delivered in spite the enormousness of the assignment, which they had carried out diligently and dispassionately at the required time frame.

Also, the Vice-Chancellor reiterated that the movement to the Permanent Site (Felele Campus) was sacrosanct, as all Non-Teaching Staff must prepare to relocate immediately after the Muslim Salah Break.

In appreciation, Professor Akinwumi promised a financial compensation to cover the expenses the Committee incurred in the course of carrying out the assignment. However, the Chairman of the Committee, Professor Gbenga Ibileye declined the offer but sincerely thanked the Vice-Chancellor for the opportunity given to them to serve, adding that it was part of their contributions and support to the University and the administration.

In his remarks, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor M. S. Audu also expressed appreciation to the Committee for the job well done.
