The Acting Vice-Chancellor of the University of Abuja, UniAbuja, Prof Patricia Manko Lar, has called on the University community to work towards restoring its collective honour and academic excellence.
Addressing the University Senate on Tuesday 18 March 2025 for the first time since she assumed office, she stressed the need for academics to uphold their responsibility of moulding students’ character and learning, while setting aside rancour and division.
“But for us to move forward, we must agree that we have not exhibited the highest or loftiest sense of decorum, tolerance, respect for each other and self-restraint, in the face of provocation, and these are characteristics of a community of noble scholars,” Lar charged.
