The number of registered architects in Nigeria has increased following licensure of over 200 architects, technologists and architectural firms by the Architects’ Registration Council of Nigeria (ARCON).
President of ARCON, Arc. Oladipupo Ajayi, who administered the Induction urged the new entrants to uphold integrity, professionalism, transparency, warning that the council will not hesitate to wield the big stick whenever the need arises.
He said: “Right from now, you must be weary of the Architects Investigating Panel (AIP) and Architects Disciplinary Tribunal. You should as a matter of principle be above board at all times and ensure that you comply sufficiently with the content of the Act establishing the Council, the Architects Code of Conduct and Ethics, the Professional Scale of Fees etc. These and others are the tools you would now require in your day-to-day delivery of services to your clients.
Arc. Umar Murnai, Registrar, ARCON, urged the new entrants to ensure that they represent the profession as good ambassadors and worthy architects.
