Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>The National University of Lesotho\u2019s (NUL) incoming Vice Chancellor (VC) Professor Olusola Isaac Fajana has promised to turn the university into a an institution<\/p>\n

of international distinction. Outlining his plans for the university, Professor Fajana said he will endeavour to \u201cmake NUL an institution of international distinction through producing high quality graduates,<\/p>\n

the global relevance of its curricula, the uniqueness of adopted pedagogies, relevant development-oriented researches and innovations, and community service\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cNUL shall provide innovation and policy services of distinction to Africa and the<\/p>\n

world, in a secure and peaceful environment driven by integrity, diversity, dignity, productivity and commitment, competitiveness, and prudence: core values the African people delightfully relish and promote,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The new VC has tabled the seven policies which will assist him to attain his aspirations for the university; they are Peace and Open Door policy, Infrastructural developments, funding strategies, academic leadership,<\/p>\n

Industrial Relations and Human Resource Strategies, Staff Welfare and the University-Town Linkage. The Nigerian national assumed duty on August 2nd and is the 10th<\/p>\n

VC of the institution. Reflecting on his few days in office he said: \u201cI have since had a great time on the ground in the university going through a very organised schedule of on boarding that enabled<\/p>\n

me to see first-hand opportunities and threats as well as the strengths and weaknesses, together with the policies and procedures of the university as it<\/p>\n

progressively operates within a chequered history of growth and steady development, legacies and impacts for the past 75 years of its existence. \u201d Professor<\/p>\n

Fajana succeeds Professor Nqosa Mahao who served from 2014 to 2019. Following his resignation Professor Kananelo Mosito has been holding the fort. He holds Bachelor of Science (B.<\/p>\n

Sc) in Economics from Obafemi Awolowo University in 1981, Masters of Science (M. Sc. ) and Ph. D in Industrial Relations and Personnel Management which he completed in 1991.<\/p>\n

of Entrepreneurs (FIoE). He is a Council Member of the Nigerian Labour and Employment Relations Association; and member of the Executive Committee of the<\/p>\n
