 Cardinal Okpaleke Urges Ag.Rector Fed Poly Oko To Use His Position For Good Of All


By Uzo Ugwunze


The Catholic Bishop of Ekwulobia Diocese, Anambra State, His Eminence, Peter Cardinal Okpaleke, has called on the Acting Rector of the Federal Polytechnic, Oko, Dr. Uche Onyegbu to use his position for the good and betterment of all.


Cardinal Okpaleke gave the advice at Our Lady of Assumption Parish, Ogidi, on April 21, during the Thanksgiving Mass in honour of the Acting Rector, Dr Onyegbu and his family for God's goodness and upliftment.


In his homily, he urged Dr. Onyegbu to keep watch over all the flock which God gave him to oversee at the institution, adding that such exalted position comes with big responsibilities.


"Today, God has given you the responsibility to shepherd the staff and students of the Federal Polytechnic, Oko. It is now your duty to mentor them and lead them to the path of Godliness.


"God has reason for elevating us to certain positions, and now that you are the Rector, God expects you to use this position for the good of all. See this position as the opportunity to make the world better."


He, therefore, called on other Christians all over the world to also form a spirit-filled relationship with the shepherd.


"We have all been chosen by God to play certain roles in the society, always ask God for his enablement to fulfill His purpose for you. Do what is good and let the future be bright for the ones entrusted in our hands."


Dr. Onyegbu thanked God for given him the opportunity to serve in that capacity, promising to do his best in contributing to the development of the society.


"I started from the scratch. I served many Rectors in different capacities and they all believed in me.  


"In the same vein, I am calling on those working with me to be diligent and dedicated to duty so that God will one day elevate them to their desired positions. Today is the happiest day in my life."


He noted that his elevation to the position of the Acting Rector is a clear manifestation of the fact that what God cannot do does not exist.


Dr. Onyegbu was appointed the Acting Rector of the Federal Polytechnic Oko on Feb. 5, 2024 by the President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu through the Federal Ministry of Education after his predecessor, Engr. (Dr.) Francisca Unoma Nwafulugo served out her five years single term.


Dignitaries that attended the Thanksgiving Mass include former Rectors; Prof. Eugene Nwadialor, Prof. Ugochukwu Nzewi and Engr. Francisca Nwafulugo and her husband, Engr. Princlytheeo Nwafulugo.


Others include, the traditional ruler of Ufuma, Igwe Chika Uchime and his Atani counterpart, Igwe Arc. Augustine Ngoddy, member Representing Aguata 1 Constituency, Mr. Anayo Okpaleke, Cabinet members of Ogidi traditional stool,  Vice Chancellor Unizik represented by the Director of Certificate and Diploma programme, Dr. Florence Amaka Akudo, principal officers of the Polytechnic, Deans and Directors, leaders and members of Unions in the institution including Academic Union of Polytechnics, Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Polytechnics, Non Academic Staff Union.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
