The VC noted that Arewa was a household name in Nigeria, covering over 19 states that have positively impacted the Northern landscape as well as the nation in unity.
Obi lauded members of the body for coming together, while charging them to work, be at peace, and live by the rules and regulations governing the university which has opened its doors to many of them by way of engagement.
Earlier in his address, the Chairman of the Association, Mr Ayuba Dauda, said that the visit was to acknowledge and identify with Obi’s administration in repositioning the university.
