According to him, the cordial relationship between the Ekiti State Government and FUTES-IYIN has continued to create an enabling environment for the young institution to grow, while positioning it to contribute meaningfully to research, innovation, entrepreneurship, and sustainable national development.
The Vice-Chancellor said the university community was proud to identify with a government that places premium value on education as a catalyst for economic transformation and societal progress.
“Your re-election is a reflection of the confidence the people have in your leadership and the tangible impact of your administration across the state. It is also an affirmation that governance anchored on integrity, inclusiveness, and service will always find acceptance among the people,” he said.
Prof. Aribisala prayed for divine wisdom, sound health, and greater strength for Governor Oyebanji as he begins another term in office, expressing optimism that the administration would consolidate on its achievements and deliver even greater dividends of democracy to the people of Ekiti State.
