proclaimed Covenant University as Nigeria's Best
Performing Higher Institution for the year 2013.
The Chairman of the Centre, Dafe Okpocha, who spoke at the
award ceremony, said the university's emulation of good
governance has made it outstanding:
"This centre believes in the practice of good governance
and sees to the development of the country. Our aim as an
organisation is to preach good governance to Africa and
Nigeria in particular. The education environment is not left
out of these. If it is not practised in this sector the country
is going nowhere."
Professor Charles Ayo, the Vice-Chancellor of the university,
was delighted to receive the award on behalf of the institution.
"Covenant is the leading university both in academic
standard and in Godly standard.
"Our drive is to be among the leading Christian mission
universities in Africa in the next 10 years. We will
consider the university as a failure, if our graduates join
the bandwagon of the unemployed looking for job,"
Professor Charles Ayo said.
He further added that the University was founded to breed a unique class of people who will make Nigeria a better place.
