Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Prof Wahab Egbewole, has called on students of the institution to participate actively in the forthcoming students' evaluation of staff.

Egbewole made the call on Monday at a meeting he held with the students union leaders where he said the exercise is aimed at ensuring optimal performance by the university's staff.

He emphasized the importance of obtaining feedback from students to improve various aspects of the university's operations.

“We are focused on gathering feedback from students about our campus operations. Understanding how our staff members are faring is crucial to our improvement efforts.

“It is not a witch-hunt, but a sincere endeavour to enhance our system through collaboration with students,'' he said.

Egbewole also reiterated the university's management's unwavering commitment to prioritizing students' welfare.

According to him, despite the paucity of funds, the university reduced school charges to alleviate the burden placed on students and their parents or guardians.

Responding, President of the Students Union Government, Mr Joseph Ologundudu, expressed gratitude for the platform provided for students to have regular interactions with the varsity's management.

He noted that the union had been encouraged to collaborate with the school's administration on various fronts.

“The union will always work in synergy with your administration to ensure that the vision of the university is actualized.

“We are ready to work with management on security, transportation, and on the delivery of essential services,'' Ologundudu said.
