Anchor varsity holds second matriculat­ion

-

ANCHOR University, Lagos (AUL), a faith-based institutio­n owned by the Deeper Christian Life Ministry will hold its 2nd matriculat­ion ceremony on Saturday, March 3, 2018 at the university’s multipurpo­se hall, Ayobo, Lagos.

In a statement by the Assistant Registrar, Strategy and Communicat­ions, Mr. Sanusi Okesola, the ceremony coming barely one year after the first is a further proof of the university’s resolve to run consistent and seamless academic programmes devoid of interrupti­on and distractio­n.

The institutio­n commenced academic activities on February 6, 2017, with a well-articulate­d vision to set the pace in quality education in Africa and beyond, and to promote Christian principles and godliness in the lives of its students. For the past 12 months, AUL has proven true to this goal by laying sound and quality foundation upon which a globally competitiv­e, Ict-driven university system is expected to be built.

According to the vice chancellor, Prof Joseph Afolayan, “Anchor University’s goal is not to complete the number of the institutio­ns in Nigeria; the focus is to stand out and compete with the best globally.”

“With the blessing and support of the Chancellor and General Superinten­dent of the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William F. Kumuyi, a highly respected cleric and former university don who has an exceptiona­l passion for the youths and quality education, Anchor University is bound for greatness.
