The powers of authority at the N’jala University have changed hands from Mallam O, outgoing Vice Chancellor and Principal (VC&P) to Prof Andrew Baimba as the University’s incoming VC&P.

The incoming and outgoing Acting Vice Chancellors and Principals held their first meeting presided by the University’s Pro-Chancellor.

This month of June will therefore be utilised by the three Njala leaders for a seamless transition.

“I have full confidence in the bongolised NU staff of today,” said Mallam O. as he briefed his successor on some of the key ongoing and planned activities.

Prof. Baimba thanked and congratulated Mallam O. on his achievements and said he took this as a national call to him to serve his institution again, one he cherishes so much.

The Pro-Chancellor beamed with smiles through and through as he sensed the potential of a successor who will continue to work with him to push some of the initiatives he had started under Mallam O.

Prof Baimba is expected to start his tenure on July 1st.
