Senator Ndoma-Egba called on Council members, management, and both teaching and non-teaching staff to offer their maximum support to the committee. He highlighted that this initiative marks the first policy drafting committee since the institution’s establishment.

The Council Chairman emphasized that the current governing body inherited a backlog of fifty cases and one hundred and fifty abscondment cases, which necessitated the proactive step to reposition FUOYE to meet global academic and administrative standards.

The newly formed policy drafting committee consists of the following members:

• Mathews Nganjioga – Chairman

• Maxwell Gowon, Esq – Member

• Professor Joshua – Member

• Professor Bolaji – Member

• Mr. Mufutau Ibrahim (Registrar of FUOYE) – Member

This strategic move is expected to address pressing institutional challenges while setting FUOYE on a progressive path, fostering an environment of academic excellence and administrative efficiency.
