“For me, I wholeheartedly accept the honour. Blessed is the political figure who, at the end of a period of service, is able to wake up and find himself buffeted with such goodwill as Lasu has generously showered on me and fellow honorees.
“I want to pledge before this august gathering that we shall be worthy ambassadors of this great university.
“One can only pledge that one will continue to be an active partisan in the ranks of that battalion of Nigerians determined to ensure that we see the country of our dreams in our life time. Let us hold the dream that Nigeria will rise again.”
