Crescent varsity awards scholarships to 30 students

The founder/proprietor of Crescent University, Abeokuta, Justice Bola Ajibola, has awarded scholarships to 30 new students to study any course of their choice beginning from 2016/2017 academic session.

The former Judge of the International Court of Justice at the Hague, unveiled this at the school’s 12th matriculation ceremony that saw 454 students matriculated from Colleges of Law, Information and Communication Technology, Social and Management Sciences, Natural and Applied Sciences, Environmental Sciences and Post-graduate Studies.

Speaking at the event the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ibraheem Gbajabiamila noted that it is the school’s esteemed resolve to train and produce men and women of strong character and integrity who can stand the test of time, build a virile and just society as encapsulated in the mission and vision of the university.

Reminding students of their primary assignment, Prof. Gbajabiamila urged them not to allow peer group influence to distract them from their studies, adding that their commitment to academic work would determine their performance in all examinations.

He admonished the students to shun all forms of anti-social behaviours such as cultism, drug abuse, violence and examination malpractice, as any of these could send them away from the university.
