The University Registrar, Mr. Mathew Ayoola, has been conferred with the highest award of the Chartered Institute of Public Management of Nigeria (CIPM), which is the Fellowship. He was recently conferred alongside four senior members of staff of FUNAAB at the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research Guest House, Lagos.

The other staff are the Deputy Director, Senate and Admissions, Mr. Aniediabasi Udofia; the Principal Assistant Registrar, Council Affairs, Mr. Samuel Adeniran; the Chief Planning Officer, Academic Planning, Mr. Olufemi Bamgbose, and the Assistant Registrar, Vice-Chancellor’s Office, Mr. Bamidele Akindele.

The President of the Institute, Archbishop (Professor) Magnus Atilade, decried the common saying that, “government business is nobody’s business”, noting that public managers should not be part of those saying such because they are architects of national development. Archbishop Atilade, who is also the Chairman of Council of CIPM, noted that government business remained with the public managers. Highpoint of the event was the presentation of certificates and plaques to the new inductees.
