Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - STAR QUESTION: Where in the World is Otueke?

Congrats B. A. on your appointment as a V.C. - in your own country. I believe that the significance of the challenge is not lost on anyone of us - let alone the Prof himself. President Goodluck Jonathan and his advisors must have bandied a lot of names around before settling for Bolaji Aluko as the pioneer vice chancellor of the university he created for his village, Otueke. The good thing is that our man, B. A. is well qualified for this position. It is one of the fulfillment of the call, all the while, for the integration of Diaspora Nigerians in the development challenges of the country. Pls B. A. let this be a testimony that indeed Nigerians in the Diaspora can be up to the task. May the Almighty God endow you with all that is necessary to make a success of the new office. As we all also say here - awon alale ile yii yoo je ki o see se, ase. Congratulations.
