Your track record as a lover of education, a philanthropist of note and above all a resourceful education manager as demonstrated during your first tenure in office has endeared you to all and sundry within and outside our state. I am therefore, confident and assured of a greater future of unprecedented all round development for our dear State University,” Governor Oyetola added.

On behalf of the Governing Council of the University and the entire University community, I thank the Executive Governor of the state of Osun, Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola for re-appointing Apostle Dr. Mrs. Folorunso Alakija for a second term of another five years and also wish Mama a successful tenure ahead,” Professor Popoola added.
