…Unilag Highlights investment in innovation during its 54th convocation ceremonies as it builds future-ready students

The halls of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) glowed with pride and applause as the institution celebrated its 54th convocation, awarding degrees to over 10,500 students on the first two days. 

But for 330 graduates, the joy was amplified with a special reward — cash prizes for their exceptional academic achievements.

Within the first two days of the ceremony, UNILAG recognized the outstanding performance of its first-class graduates, presenting them with financial incentives of varying prices across departments. This came on as a powerful symbol of the university’s commitment to excellence and its desire to nurture future leaders.

The convocation ceremonies brought together students from diverse faculties, including Education, Social Sciences, Arts, Environmental Sciences, and Science. The J.F Ade-Ajayi Auditorium was filled with excitement as each graduate took their rightful place on the stage, their achievements a pointer to hard work and dedication.

Professor Folasade T. Ogunsola, OON, FAS, Vice-Chancellor of UNILAG, delivered an address, congratulating the graduates and highlighting the university’s commendable achievements. She revealed that UNILAG secured over N11 billion Naira in grants in 2023 for research and innovation.

Professor Ogunsola further emphasized UNILAG’s dedication to preparing graduates for the challenges of the future. She outlined various initiatives, including online courses, research grant management training, and technical skill development programs, aimed at fostering a community prepared to scale through the demands of the modern world.

Among the graduating class, David Oluwatomiwa Akanmu stood out having earned a perfect 5.0 CGPA. Akanmu emerged from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering as the top first-class graduate, adding another feather to UNILAG’s cap.

Professor Ogunsola extended her congratulations not just to the graduates but also to their families, guardians, and supporters. She acknowledged the sacrifices and encouragement that played an incredible role in their success.

The Vice-Chancellor used the occasion to highlight UNILAG’s journey over the past year, noting progress in research, collaborations, infrastructure development, and financial stability. She expressed gratitude to donors and partners whose contributions, including scholarships, continue to empower talented students.

Unilag’s ongoing 54th convocation is a celebration of academic excellence, fueled by a focus on nurturing talent and building a future-ready generation that do not solely rely on 9-5 jobs, but can build something for themselves.
