The Vice chancellor of the university, Professor Benard Aigbokhan, said the synergy is part of the university’s strategies to ensure that its graduates become the toast of employers right from day one of their graduation, as well as enable them tap into entrepreneurial opportunity in IT and e-business sector.
He stated that the depressing economic situation in Nigeria and internationally has negatively impacted the labour market such that graduates have to develop multiple competencies in relevant skills-set in addition to their academic degrees to be able to compete favourably within the limited opportunities both locally and internationally.
The Managing Director, New Horizons Nigeria, Mr. Tim Akano said part of the overall vision of the offer is to make Nigeria the IT hub for Africa and the world by extension and consequently get Nigerian graduates and youths in general to replicate and even beat the exploits of Bill Gates, Mack Zuckerberg, Michael Dell, etc, through development of innovative software, applications etc to benefit the world.
