According to Prince Yakubu, "The ability of the Acting Vice Chancellor to say no to certain unethical things that are done arbitrarily has elevated the University from its chronic bad records to a better one. 

"We are aware that your life may be at risk for taking these bold steps to redirect the institution to the path of greatness, don't forget that God is in control of all our affairs. You must not be detered; you must be more determined and resolute that your mission here is to sanitize the university.
