The Governor of Osun State, Adegboyega Oyetola, has urged alumni associations of Nigerian universities to support their alma mater to enable the universities to achieve their objectives.
The governor said this on Saturday night during the celebration of the University of Lagos golden jubilee.
Speaking with journalists shortly after the event, Oyetola thanked the institution for recognising his modest efforts at giving his utmost to politics and humanity.
He urged members to build a better and stronger university that would deliver the Nigeria of their dreams.
“The university needs her alumni to perform its mandate to the nation and the world. More than ever, alumni need to get involved in the funding of their institutions. More than ever, the alumni must use their influence and positions to facilitate development for their institutions.”
The university, during the celebration, honoured Vice President Yemi Osinbajo; Bola Tinubu; Adegboyega Oyetola, and Babajide Sanwo-Olu, among others.
Oyetola, who is an alumnus of the university, was honoured for his contribution to the politics and human development.
