We appointed Tinubu LAUTECH Chancellor because He has Connections

The governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has explained the reason why the owner-state governments of Oyo and Osun appointed the National Leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and former governor of Lagos State, Senator Bola Tinubu, as Chancellor of the university. He made this known at the 8th inauguration ceremony of LAUTECH Governing Council held in the school on Friday.

According to the governor, Senator Tinubu possessed an international network that would impact positively on the school and lift it to an international level which was envisaged for it by its founding fathers. He also commended the Governing Council being inaugurated as comprising eminent Nigerians who had made their marks in all walks of life. Governor Ajimobi noted that the ingenuity and the pedigree of the governors of the two owner states had halted the crises that had hitherto almost consumed the institution before their advent. While expressing the commitment of the two owner states to making LAUTECH a world class institution, the governor also stressed the need for the university to take its pride of place in the comity of universities as a world-class institution.
