McPherson University Boosts Campus Welfare with New Fleet Commissioning

In a significant move to enhance administrative efficiency and campus medical response, the Vice Chancellor of McPherson University, Prof. Francis Igbasan, officially commissioned three new vehicles today during a dedication ceremony held on the university grounds.

The new fleet includes two official cars designated for the university’s Principal Officers and a state-of-the-art ambulance dedicated to the University Clinic.

The acquisition of the ambulance marks the completion of a priority project for the current administration. Speaking at the event, Prof. Igbasan noted that the vehicle was a direct response to long-standing advocacy from key stakeholders, including parents, students, and staff.

 "This ambulance is more than just a vehicle; it is a commitment to the wellbeing of our community," Prof. Igbasan stated. "It fulfills a cogent vision to strategically improve our clinic’s services and ensure that patient transport is both swift and professional."

The ceremony took a spiritual turn as Rev. Dr. Abikoye led the dedication, citing Psalm 121. He commended the university’s rapid infrastructural growth and offered a poignant prayer that the ambulance serves as a "vessel for healing," both in the literal medical sense and spiritually for those it carries.

Following a symbolic test drive by the Vice Chancellor, the keys were formally presented to the respective officers.

 Official Vehicles: Handed to the University Registrar, Mrs. Emi Alawode, and the University Librarian, Dr. Jerome Idiegbeyan-ose.

 Ambulance: Handed to the Ag. Director of Health Services, Dr. Clement Uwaechi. 

Accepting the keys on behalf of the Principal Officers, Mrs. Alawode expressed deep appreciation for the management’s support. She reaffirmed their dedication to excellence, stating that the investment in these tools would further empower them to lead the institution toward "greater heights."

For the University Clinic, the addition of a dedicated ambulance is a transformative milestone. The Ag. Director of Health Services, Dr. Clement, acknowledged the long-awaited nature of the acquisition. He thanked the University Management for prioritizing the clinic's needs and allocating the necessary funds for such a vital life-saving tool, pledging that the vehicle would be used with the utmost judiciousness.
