“I want to encourage the graduands to constantly interact with research centres and to constantly make efforts, through adequate innovations and key into grant application for development.
“The overall aim is to encourage schools that are doing well, if we can have at least standardised and equipped schools in Nigeria that would solve the problems of education in the country.
“The time has come for scholars and researchers to come out with innovations and ideas for the growth and development of the country.
“As a university, we should solve problems for organisations such that when they are recruiting students, they would consider those from our institutions,” he said.
Na’Allah promised to empower workers in the university by putting in place the necessary support they need to enable them and the institution to succeed.
He added that adequate research would provide opportunities to celebrate some universities on the global university ranking, while urging the graduands to see themselves as ”solutions to problems and not the problem”.

My acne was never severe in the first place but I did have stubborn pimples. I’m on month 3 and my lips aren’t chapped at all (thank goodness) and my skin isn’t dry either. Only side effect is back pain which is tolerable. The second I start to feel the aquaphor on my lips go away I apply it again ( https://knowledgewebcasts.com/online-accutane-clean-face/).
