By Ifeanyi Omenogor
OGWASHI-UKU/Nigeria: The Rector, Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku, Professor Emmanuel Achuenu has been described as a renowned academician who has brought his wealth of knowledge to bear on the development of the institution.
A former head, Department of Fine and Applied Art Department, Mr Awele Adingwupu made the description in a chat with newsmen at Ogwashi-Uku.
Adingwupu said that the institution had been peaceful since the inception of Professor Achuenu in office, saying that the rector was an apostle of peace. Adding that the rector had the interest of the institution, staff and students at heart.
The former head of department equally lauded the deputy rector, Dr Charles Asibelue and the registrar of the institution Mrs Florence Nweke for their numerous contributions to the development of the institution.
While calling on students of the department to be committed to their academic program, he said Fine and Applied Art Department was a complete skill acquisition department, opining that any student that successfully graduate from the department would become employer of labour and not a job seeker.
He urged students to imbibe the culture of hard work, which according to him, does not kill, but rather would make one great, adding that they should study hard to justify the effort of the management and their parents.
Mr Adingwupu, the President of Artist Association of Nigeria, said the annual art exhibition of the body would hold at National Museum, Mongo Park House, Asaba.
