Pastor Adeboye Donates 50 Million Naira To Obafemi Awolowo University

Despite the controversy currently trailing the rechristening of his alma mater, that has led to the closure of the University of Lagos, Pastor Adeboye will today hand over a cheque worth N50 mill-ion to the vice chan-cellor of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Professor Idowu Bamitale Omole.

The donation represents an endowment of a pro-fessorial chair for mathe-matics in that tertiary institution at the fifth edition of Excel 2012 Conference—a baby of the Apapa Family of the church.

Endowment gifts offer an extraordinary opportun-ity for benefactors to support research into the big questions of our time and beyond.

This brings to four the number of chairs he has endowed as part of his contribution to excellence in tertiary education in Nigeria.

Adeboye had doled out similar amounts to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, the University of Ibadan, Ibadan and the University of Lagos, Akoka, Lagos.
