NOUN Assures Fair and Just Selection Process for Next Vice-Chancellor

The National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) has addressed concerns raised on social media regarding the ongoing search for its next Vice-Chancellor. A recent publication alleged that a potential candidate was ineligible due to not being listed in a congregation list.

The university clarifies that the names on the congregation list are not final and do not determine eligibility for the Vice-Chancellor position. The deadline for applications has not been reached, and the search process remains ongoing.

The Governing Council assures the university community that the selection process will be fair and just to all candidates. The public is advised to disregard publications aimed at misinforming and stirring controversy.

The university remains committed to identifying the best candidate for the position, and the application process is open to all qualified individuals until the advertised deadline.
