Speaking at the event, the Rector admonished the newly admitted Students to pursue their course of study with determination, commitment, and discipline to be useful to the country.
Kadiri said that each of the Students has unique gifts, talents, perspectives, and experiences which Nigeria in particular, and the World desperately need to solve different problems.
He said, “I want you to note that primarily, the World needs you but more importantly; your country, Nigeria needs you. I strongly believe that each of you has unique gifts, talents, perspectives, and experiences that the World desperately needs. No matter what fields you pursue, you will soon realize that there are problems to solve, injustices to fight, and truths to discover.
“Your knowledge and potential will be required to unlock cures for diseases, create technologies that improve lives and develop the nation, and craft policies that promote freedom and justice. The possibilities are limitless.
Therefore, I admonish you to pursue your goals with determination, commitment, and discipline. Believe in yourself. I am sure you are braver than you think, more talented than you know, and capable more than you imagine. When times get tough and challenges seem impossible, draw on your inner strength and perseverance and be rest assured that the Almighty God will help you as you strive to actualize your mission and vision towards achieving your goals in life”, he counseled.
He urged the students to make use of the Polytechnic’s facilities and equipment including the internet which he said is a rich source of information on any topic under the Sun.
