I therefore appeal to all Nigerians to join hands with the government by giving useful information to security agents on suspicious persons and miscreants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us keep the hope alive and be optimistic, by the grace of God, we shall overcome these challenges,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>While reiterating the commitment to tackle unemployment, particularly among graduates of tertiary institutions, Tinubu enjoined them to leverage the skills acquisition training by the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), and the Federal Government\u2019s digital innovation programmes, designed to train two million youths and empower Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises.<\/p>\n<p>Tinubu also urged the graduands to utilise the knowledge, skills and character they learnt for the betterment of humanity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI look forward to exploring and seizing the opportunity provided in the \u2018Renewed Hope Agenda\u2019 of my administration, which is aimed at repositioning Nigeria as a leading nation in Africa,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The President challenged universities in the country to come up with research and innovations to fast track sustainable development in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the Chancellor of the university, King Dandeson Douglas-Jaja, said that the institution began academic activities in 2012, with three faculties and 218 students.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the university now has a postgraduate school, 15 faculties and over 20,000 student population, adding that it also graduated 4,365 students.<\/p>\n<p>He, therefore, charged them to be good ambassadors of the university wherever they find themselves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI must not fail to inform you that FUDMA is facing serious security challenges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI therefore appeal to all to come to the aid of the university to address some of these challenges,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
