GOVERNOR

Babajide Sanwo- Olu of Lagos State, Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, Akarigbo of Remoland, Oba Babatunde Adewale Ajayi, were among dignitaries who honoured immediate past vice chancellor of the University of Lagos ( UNILAG), Prof Oluwatoyin Ogundipe at a book launch.

The occasion was the public presentation of the book titled: “The Captain Steering The Ship Above Murky Waters,” authored by Ogundipe.

The event, which held at Eko Hotel and Suites, was a celebration of Ogundipe, described as an astute administrator.

Sanwo- Olu described Ogundipe as a committed administrator who has made UNILAG the toast of admission seekers and the envy of Nigeria.

He commended the former VC for rising above the turbulence at the institution in August 2020, during his crisis with former Pro- chancellor and Chairman of Council, Dr Wale Babalakin.

He said: “I can attest that during your tenure, we have seen giant strides and witnessed your meaningful impact. We have seen purposeful governance and we have seen administration per excellence. We know that you have to do that for the University that has become the envy, not only in Nigeria but the world.
