dc.description.abstract | This address, delivered during the 2019 Convocation Ceremony of the University of Lagos, celebrates the achievements of graduating students and reinforces the institution's mission to foster leadership, resilience, and national development. The speaker warmly congratulates the graduates, invoking blessings upon their academic achievements and encouraging them to rise as transformative leaders across Nigeria and beyond. Central to the address is a passionate call for the cultivation of leadership attributes such as resilience, competence, courage, focus, passion, vision, perseverance, strategic thinking, and self-discipline. These virtues, according to the address, are essential for navigating the complex demands of modern society and contributing meaningfully to national progress. The address acknowledges the efforts of the University’s Council, Management, Senate, staff, and students in maintaining academic stability in the wake of the recently concluded Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) strike. Their collective commitment ensured that the academic session was completed without delay, safeguarding the academic future of the students. The speaker expresses a strong hope that prolonged disruptions to the academic calendar will become a relic of the past. Overall, this convocation message underscores the role of universities not only as centers of learning but also as incubators of responsible and visionary leadership. It affirms the belief that with the right values and discipline, the graduating class can serve as catalysts for a better future in Nigeria and the wider world. The speech blends celebration with a strong ethical charge, calling on the graduates to lead with integrity and excellence. | |
