 Rector Calls for Unity, Love and Moral Renewal amidst Achievements 


....as Federal Polytechnic Oko Celebrates Christmas Carol of 9 Lessons


By Uzo Ugwunze 


The Rector, Federal Polytechnic Oko, Dr Chioma Irene Awuzie, has called on the school's management, staff and students to use the Christmas season to reflect on the love of God, unite together and share with each other, especially with the less privileged persons around them in humility and righteousness.


She made the call during the 2025 edition of Carol of Nine Lessons which held at the Convocation arena, Federal Polytechnic Oko, Orumba North Local Government Area, Anambra State, urging all management, staff and students of the polytechnic to uphold peace, discipline, and institutional pride as they join hands to move the institution to greater heights as proud and worthy ambassadors of the institution


According to Dr. Awuzie, Christmas is more than a celebration. It is a call to unity, love and moral renewal. A period of sober reflection living in the spirit of onye aghana nwanneya (None should forsake his brother) and Omume ezi omume (the pursuit of good deeds); we are reminded that compassion, humility and mutual respect must guide our daily lives.


"Reflect on the birth of the Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ: the greatest gift humanity has ever received. As the Scriptures remind us in Isaiah 9:6, For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. In these words, we are assured that light still shines in the midst of uncertainty, fear and challenge.


"As we sing, listen, dance, and reflect, may the joy of Christmas, heal the broken hearted, strengthen the weary, comfort the grieving and ignite purpose in every soul present."


The Rector also acknowledged with gratitude and thanksgiving the tangible progress being recorded within the polytechnic in the course of the year. 


"Management has remained deliberate and proactive in pursuing both internal initiatives and external support to enhance our learning environment.


"I am pleased to announce that the Governing Council, at its 124th Regular Meeting, graciously approved the 2026 appraisal and promotion report for academic and non-teaching staff, with effect from January, 2026. Promotion letters will be issued shortly, and we congratulate all deserving beneficiaries in advance.


"I am happy to announce that Senator Barnabas Gemade Medical Centre, Ufuma, will soon commence operations because, all equipment and facilities required for the full take-off of the hospital have been fully procured and installation will commence soonest. 


"Similarly, the resuscitated Moment FM Radio, domiciled in the Department of Mass Communication, has also received its required energy infrastructure, which is currently being installed to enable full broadcasting operations. Joyfully, I further announce that work at the ICT Experience Centre, a Federal Government pilot initiative under the Office of the First Lady and sponsored directly by the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund), has attained approximately 65% completion. 


"In addition, work has recommenced on the Hospitality and Hotel Complex following the revalidation of the project by TETFund. Upon completion, this facility will offer quality lodging and hospitality services to guests of the polytechnic. Management has also taken delivery of additional student chairs and desks, which are presently being installed in lecture halls across the Oko campus to further improve teaching and learning conditions.


"These milestones are more than infrastructure: they are symbols of renewal, progress, and hope; clear evidence that Federal Polytechnic, Oko is being steadily repositioned for relevance, excellence, and national impact," Dr Awuzie said.


Highlights of the Christmas Carols celebration include: Reading of the Carol of Nine Lessons by nine top management staff, Awards and gifts presentations to staff who distinguished themselves in the service of the polytechnic community, Distribution of bags of rice to all the management and staff of the polytechnic, cutting of Christmas cake, and different song renditions from different chapel choir and Nkwa groups.


Awards recipients include: Engr. Nwankwo, Brand Ambassador; Dr. Gift Eyisi, Most Friendly Staff Award - Female Category; Sylvester Nwafor, Most Hardworking Staff Award; Engr. Dr. John Egbunike Ananti, Most Friendly Staff Award - Male Category; and Mr. Fidelis Alor, Most Dedicated Staff Award which he won for a record second time within a year and others.
