His Excellency, The Governor of Lagos State, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu Representatives of other Governors Honourable Minister of Education, Alhaji Adamu Adamu Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission, Prof Abubakar Adamu Rasheed Commissioners The Proprietor & Visitor, Dr (Prince) Oladega Adebogun Chancellor Chairman and Members of the Caleb University Board of Trustees. Pro-Chancellor, Chairman of Council and Members Members of University Senate and Congregation Our revered Traditional Rulers Fellow Vice-Chancellors and Registrars of other Universities Eminent Citizens and leaders of collaborating professional bodies Our dear Parents of the Topaz graduating class and other students Members of the 2019 Graduating Class Gentlemen of the Press Ladies and Gentlemen BREAKING FORTH, MARCHING ON We give God All the Glory We give God Honour We give God All the Glory We give God Honour THE UNFOLDING PICTURE: Standing before you today are 10 pioneers of the Caleb University Graduate Development Scheme. They are the future, and represent the blend of intelligence, passion and character. While we have a history of predominantly male academic staff, the Pioneers fully express a deliberate policy by Caleb University, of promoting gender balance, and an acknowledgement of the remarkable performance by the ladies, with strong showing yearly in the top academic performance category. Two of them resigned full-time employment in the country’s top banks, to join this team. With them, we are grooming staff and leadership with unrivalled passion for the Caleb Dream. Showcasing The Pioneers, is symbolic and a message to today’s graduating class, our current students, and the growing community of potential students to whom studying in Caleb University is a dream they are hoping would materialise sooner. When they were demonstrating noticeable commitment to the core values of this university as undergraduates, The Pioneers had no idea that a great cloud of witnesses were taking note. Then from the blues, they were contacted with an offer, and today they are being announced as role models of a new order. At least one of them would one day become the vice-chancellor of this great university. Among today’s graduates are those who will be the next to be celebrated. Let me use this opportunity to announce, as an affirmation of our delight in the take-off of the scheme, starting from November 2019, a member of The Pioneers would serve as Acting VC for a day each month of the year, based on a schedule, while the two leading performers during the one-day tenure would be acting VC for the remaining two months of the year. Going through this unique citadel of learning and character development, is a remarkable journey which some begin to appreciate the more when they get out there and discover that the reality they were prepared for, is not about to change, but is so dynamic and manifesting in manifold sophistication, that only those that know their God shall be strong and do exploits (Daniel 11: 32). Sooner, the Topaz. Graduating Class would demonstrate to their world, our world that Nigeria is the breeding ground of geniuses with a lot to offer Talking about Caleb University as a blossoming centre of creativity, we have today also launched the new tune of our school anthem. The new tune is the product of a competition moderated by the student leadership for our students only. Despite the tight timeline, we are immensely proud of our students and delighted at their responsiveness. I specially congratulate the winner of the anthem tune competition, Attah Paul Adu-Ojo, 300 level, Department of Architecture. The new tune is an acknowledgement of their creativity and speaks to the subject of wisdom which ties in to the progression in the name of each graduating class in this university. In 2017, the Emerald class graduated, while the 2018 graduates constituted the Amethyst Class. The 2019 set is the Topaz Class. The Bible in Job 28: 19 speaks about the Topaz of Ethiopia as very precious. Our dear graduating students, you are precious to us and you will be precious to your world, in Jesus name. The Almighty God who has brought you this far will never leave nor forsake you, in Jesus name. We cannot but acknowledge those that God has used to make this day possible. First is our Proprietor, Prince (Dr.) Oladega Adelowo Adebogun; our Chancellor, Brigadier-General Mobolaji Johnson (rtd); the Chairman, Board of Trustees (BoT), ever-supportive Professor Peter Akinsola Okebukola, and members of the Board; and our passionate Pro-Chancellor, Professor Fola Tayo and members of the University Council.

The study was therefore designed to analyse management practices in Lagos state tertiary institutions through total quality management structural framework. The selected public tertiary institutions in Lagos State were Lagos State University (LASU) Ojo, University of Lagos (UNILAG) Akoka, Michael Otedola College of Primary Education (MOCOPED) Inaforija, Epe, Federal College of Education Technical (FCET)Akoka, and Adeniran Ogunsanya College of Education (AOCOED) Oto-Ijanikin. A descriptive survey research design was adopted. A Total Quality Management practices and Quality Teacher Education Questionnaire (TQMP-QTEQ) was used to obtain data for the study. The structured questionnaire was administered on 905 academic and non-academic staff members and final year students of sampled institutions using purposive sampling technique. The questionnaire was content-validated using expert opinion method and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy. In terms of the measure of reliability, the Cronbach’s Alpha values for the two major constructs of the study are satisfactory – quality teacher education (0.838) and TQM (0.879). Their Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) statistics of sampling adequacy were equally above the acceptable standard of 0.7. The hypotheses were tested at the 5 percent level of significance.

  • Coverage of Consumerism in Three Selected Nigerian Mainstream Newspapers
    Caleb Journal of Social and Management Sciences, Volume 5, Number 2, 2020 COVERAGE OF CONSUMERISM IN THREE SELECTED NIGERIAN MAINSTREAM NEWSPAPERS Shaibu, Hassan Husseini1 PhD Onwunali, Charles Chinedu2 Ph.D. Badeji, Aisha Eniola3 Abstract This study examined the coverage of consumerism by three Nigerian mainstreams newspapers-The Nation, Daily Trust and Punch between July 2019 to June 2020. The study adopted content analysis as method of study and Agenda Setting theory as framework. Findings revealed a gap in the coverage of consumerism in the selected newspapers. Findings also show that the stories on consumerism were published mainly in the inside pages and on a dedicated column, which limited their prominence. The study concludes that there are gaps not just in newspaper coverage, but also in newspaper content especially as it relates to prominence given to the reportage of consumerism. Therefore, it is recommended that media should give prominence to consumerism stories so that issues bothering on consumerism can be placed on the front burners of public discourse just as the other stories that are accorded prominence. It is also recommended that print media organizations reevaluate their editorial stance and house style so as to give adequate attention to issues faced by consumers in exchange relationships. Finally, it is recommended that gatekeepers should consider creating a consumer beat in their respective print media organization, as it will ensure the reportage of more activities and foster conversations about the need for

  • Nigerian University and Manpower Development in a Changing World
    Higher Education Studies; Vol. 4, No. 1; 2014 ISSN 1925-4741 E-ISSN 1925-475X Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Nigerian University and Manpower Development in a Changing World Adam Adem Anyebe1 1 Department of Public Administration, Faculty of Administration, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Correspondence: Adam Adem Anyebe, Department of Public Administration, Faculty of Administration, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 16, 2013 Accepted: December 19, 2013 Online Published: January 24, 2014 doi:10.5539/hes.v4n1p82 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/hes.v4n1p82 Abstract This paper examines Nigerian university system in relation to manpower development in a rapidly changing world of work. This is for purposes of identifying areas that need urgent attention in order to reposition the system to produce high quality manpower. The study reveals that the expansion in the university system is characterized by a mixed bag of limited success, and continuing challenges. For Nigerian university to fulfill its objective effectively, the system needs to be systematically planned in order to produce graduates that are versatile enough to acquire competitive positions as well as generate their own employment. Keywords: university, expansion, competitiveness, planning, exponential 1. Introduction Knowledge and skill that emanate from the pursuit of education are utilitarian because they uplift the individual by giving him the comportment, awareness and the desire to serve and thus transform society. Thus, education is a social project whose object is the relationship between man and nature and how the transformation of this can lead to social development. In principle, every society or community aspires towards stability and progress, thus, education is usually treated with considerable respect and interest (Abubakar, 2004).
