The three lecturers; Prof. Usman Abubakar, Dr Benjamin Awen and Dr Ojo Ohiovi in their separate remarks described Gov Bello as a thoroughbred young man who always shows zeal and determination in all his endeavours.
Prof Usman said Governor Yahaya Bello is a proud alumnus of the university who has distinguished himself as a good product of the institution.
The university dons urged the governor to remain focused and continue to deliver good governance to the people of Kogi State noting that the institution is proud of his leadership as the youngest governor in the country.
