New ABSU Vice-Chancellor Bans Birthday Parties and Courtesy Visits

The new Vice-Chancellor of Abia State University (ABSU), Prof. Amadike Ugbogu, has announced a ban on birthday parties, award presentations, and courtesy visits during his time in office.

This decision was shared in a notice from the university’s Media and Public Relations Unit. The notice also states that Prof. Ugbogu will not accept birthday cakes or honors from individuals, organizations, churches, or communities.

Prof. Ugbogu expressed gratitude to the university community for their support during his inauguration. However, he emphasized that faculties and departments should stop making courtesy visits to his office. Instead, he plans to visit them personally to engage with staff and learn about their work and challenges.

The Vice-Chancellor, who took office just two weeks ago, is focused on strong leadership, academic success, and the overall growth of the university. He has asked everyone in the university community, including students and staff, to respect his new rules and work together to support his vision.
