A group of Imo State University (IMSU) graduates from the then College of Business Administration (CBA) now known as the Faculty of Management Sciences Class of 2000, on December 27, 2025, handed over a refurbished lecture hall to the University Management. The hall features brand-new sets of seats, ceiling fans, burglary proofs, and other facilities for a conducive learning environment. The group also launched a mentorship scheme for graduating students in the Faculty.
As the fourth set to graduate from the then IMSU College of Business Administration, whose members have excelled in law, medicine, stockbroking, philosophy, artificial intelligence, data science, theology, and more, they have set the following goals: to foster unity, give back meaningfully to society, and uphold the legacy of gentlemen who proudly represent their alma mater.
In his address during the brief handover ceremony, the Class President, Mr. Ambrose Ogoko, expressed joy at their homecoming and thanked the Vice-Chancellor, Professor U. U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, for his warm reception and encouragement. He stressed that they are setting the pace and that their successful completion of the lecture hall refurbishment project would remind other graduates (classes) behind them that there is something they need to do for the school.
In his reaction, Vice-Chancellor Professor Uchefula U. Chukwumaeze, SAN, FCArb, expressed gratitude to the group for their generosity on behalf of the Governing Council, Management, Senate, staff, and students of the University. He added, "We have had situations where students come up to help in one way or another, especially in the Faculty of Law and one or two other departments, but we have never been so blessed to have it in such an organized form with something that is indelible. You took pains to come and identify a project, took pains to come and execute it. You didn't just do the job, you did it to such a very good standard."
Speaking further, he urged them, in addition to mentoring the students, to also mentor other graduates behind them to do likewise. The Vice-Chancellor, however, prayed that Almighty God would continue to bless them and replenish their pockets.
Those present at the handover ceremony included: the Dean, Faculty of Management Sciences, Professor Ngozi Iheduru; Professor Mike Ndughu - Council Member; Professor K. C. Otiwu - Council Member; Professor Luke Chukwu; Professor Maxwell Azugama; the University Public Relations Officer, Dr. Onyekachi Augustus Nwaozor; other staff of the Management Sciences Faculty; a large number of members of the CBA Class of 2000; and gentlemen of the press.
