Chris J. Maiyaki approved their verification of the 18 programmes for take-off of the university.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are glad to be here because today is historic for the university and for us; it\u2019s an epoch out for us because after this visit, you will know whether you have the nod to run the programmes as a university.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTherefore, we congratulate you for this transition and to President Bola Tinubu for approving the university,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He disclosed that the team comprised resource persons carefully selected from different parts of the country such as from the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria, Nnamdi Azikwe University Awka, Babcock University, among others, where experts in different academic fields such as in basic and allied Sciences where drawn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are going to use Core Curriculum Minimum Academic Standard (CCMAS) documents as our benchmark and that will be the basis for the assessment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince last year, the CCMAS was introduced and the implementation started from 2023\/2024 academic session, so when you get approval for these programmes, it\u2019s the CCMAS that you are going to use as a minimum of 70 percent content and the remaining percent you are going to use to suit your own uniqueness as a university,\u201d Akubue said.<\/p>\n<p>Welcoming the team, the Acting Vice Chancellor of FUAHS, Prof John Emaimo expressed appreciation to President Tinubu who approved the transition of the former college into a full-fledged university and first Health Science University in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the NUC took its time to choose the verification team to help nurture the university, which he said was yet in a paper until the academic activities begin to take place in the university.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe team is well chosen to deliver on their assignment and this is just the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe university is starting today by virtue of this verification. We are adding another feather for universities in Nigeria to mould more minds into the society.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are confident that the team will put us in the right direction to get the university accreditation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we are doing is for humanity, trying to intervene on the current need issues in Nigeria, to make sure that we have a place for the young people in the society.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe, the staff, are ready to help you in whatever you want to verify so that at the end of the day, you will give us a better way to go and we take it up from there,\u201d Emaimo said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
