By Onomiguren Agbamu
Rector of Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku ( DSPG), Bldr. Prof. Emmanuel Achuenu, has inaugurated a 100-seat-capacity, ultra modern lecture hall built by the Comrade Eruru led Students Union Government, as well as a Toyota Corolla “aluta jet” procured by the body.
Professor Achuenue also lauded the Students Union Government ( SUG) for keying into management’s three pronged agenda of infrastructural development, peace on campus, and a strengthened academic regime.
Achuenu also gave the Comrade Christian Eruru led student body a pat on the back for standing resolute behind management, even in the face of certificate racketeering and other petitions that tended to dampen their enthusiasm as to the fidelity of their certificates
The Rector noted that the pervading peaceful environment currently being enjoyed on campus, despite spirited attempts by some elements to cause disaffection in the institution over spurious allegations that have since fallen “like a pack of cards”, is due largely to the mutual synergy between management and the student union government of DSPG
Noting that the institution , since he assumed office in 2021, has continued to improve in its quest for technological innovation , research, and development, and training of students in the area of skills development.
Achuenu affirmed that , “Today, we can conveniently say we have keyed into the concept of “one student, two certificates”, which is fast becoming the globally accepted standard practice in polytechnic education”
The DSPG Chief Executive Officer announced that “today we have the approval for the certification of almost all the programmes of DSPG, in addition to NBTE accreditation”, adding that “we have 100% accreditation for all our programmes, and we are proud to say that the programmes are very strong”.
He commended the students union government for its clear vision of keying into management’s vision as well as prudent utilization of resources in actualizing their projects, describing the leadership as worthy ambassadors of management’s mantra of good application of resources .
Achuenu further added that under his watch as Rector, the institution has undergone massive facelift via internal roads constructed during the Okowa administration, lighting up of the campus via solar power courtesy of TETFUND and the Delta State government, and notifying all that the NDDC solar power project is already ongoing and will heavily boost the lighting up of the entire campus vicinity when completed.
He therefore assured that serious reactivation of the administrative block , the Fine and Applied Arts complex with a corresponding Art gallery , supply of furniture to all lecture halls, as well as the completion of the perimeter fencing of the campus, will be ready very soon, among others.
In his welcome address , the Dean of Student Affairs (DSA), Mr. Franklin Agetue, thanked management for their support for the project in spite of upward variation in building materials prices due to inflationary trends
He also thanked the SUG Executive members for their cooperation in ensuring that the project was duly supervised and saw the light of day
In his speech , an elated Students Union Government ( SUG) President , Comrade Christian Eruru, thanked the Builder Prof. Emmanuel Achuenu-led management and the Dean of Student Affairs for their kind support towards the realization of the 100 capacity ultra modern lecture hall, describing it as a bold step towards his administration’s legacy of keying in to the management’s vision.
