August 18, 2023

The Isua Akoko Community Study Centre, Ondo State, has embarked on a series of advocacy campaigns to upscale enrolment in the centre.

The team, led by the director of the centre, Dr. A.M Badmus, paid a courtesy visit to the Reagent of Ifira, Princess Oshin, in her palace.

According to the centre director, the purpose of the visit was to inform the community of operations of NOUN as well as ensure massive enrolment of students from the Ifira community.

He highlighted the flexibility of studying with NOUN and the support services available to students at the centre.

The director further appealed to the reagent to assist in spreading the message to her council of elders and youths in her community.

Responding, the reagent commended the team and accepted the plea to assist the team in spreading the advocacy message.

A NOUN advocacy souvenir was presented to the regent at the end of the discussion. Meanwhile, the team further proceeded to Upland College of Education, Office of the Provost, with Prof. A. M. Busari , who is also a facilitator in NOUN.

The study centre director commended him and informed him and students of the Ifira and Upland communities of the operations of NOUN. Busari acknowledged in his response that he is working to encourage his junior colleagues to get their Ph.Ds from NOUN and also for the Upland NCE graduates to come and get their degrees from NOUN, too.

The team also went ahead to visit Prof. Kayode S. J., the CEO of the institution, and thanked him for his support for the centre as a facilitator, among other things. Kayode welcomed all staff and prayed that the relationship between both institutions would continue to be profitable for all.

The advocacy team had a brief stop at the Divisional Police Headquarters, Isua-Akoko for a familiarisation visit to the new DPO, who was on another assignment, as the team rescheduled the visit.
