Dear members of University community, my name is Professor Muhammad Nasiru Maiturare, Vice Chancellor, IBB University, Lapai, Niger State.  You are well aware of the unfortunate incident that has brought our great university into negative limelight.

 It is indeed a highly embarrassing and deeply regrettably development.  The management of the University has set up a committee headed by the Deputy Vice Chancellor Academic, with membership including relevant stakeholders to investigate the immediate and the remote causes of this ugly incident.
 The University’s management will take appropriate disciplinary measures against any individual found guilty.  I will like to assure members of our University Community that the management and the Council are committed to upholding the ideals of the University’s founding fathers.
 The mischievous act of a few individuals who are bent on tarnishing the good image of the university will not deter us from making IBBUL a great University above its peers.  By the special grace of God and the efforts of well-meaning and dedicated staff and students, IBB University is a winner of National and International Awards.
 Our University is indeed blessed with well-behaved and outstanding staff and students who have distinguished themselves in their various disciplines and have become the pride of the University and the role models among their peers.
 IBB University today is a global brand, well respected in the country of Nigerian Universities and outside the country.  As a testimony of our intellectual process, as I speak to you a team of Professors and distinguished scholars from IBB University are in Uganda to undertake research and capacity building programmes financed by the African Development Bank and coordinated by the Directorate of Technical Cooperation in Africa.
 IBB University will continue to progress to serve the current generation and generations to come.  I therefore urge all members of the University community to remain calm and continue doing their best for the upliftment of our great university.
 Thank you for your continued support and God bless.
