The Gambian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Mrs. Angela B. Colley, has stated the need for deliberate efforts in projecting the positive side of Nigeria.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colley, who spoke at the graduation of the first set of University of Agric, Abeokuta-foreign African Scholarship Scheme for 10 students of West African countries in Abeokuta on Tuesday, also sought greater partnership with Nigeria.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere is much to Nigeria than just armed robbery and suicide bombing, Nigerians should make deliberate efforts to project the better side of the country instead of hyping on the negative sides,\u201d she stated.<\/span><\/p>\n

She recalled the introduction of the technical aide corps to her country decades back, by Nigeria, and commended the spirit of \u201cbrotherliness and innovation\u201d displayed by the Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof. Oluwafemi Balogun.<\/span><\/p>\n

Coley, who described the VC as a pan Africanist said, \u201cI was stunned by the VC when he mentioned that we should stop boasting about US, UK, China and other foreign scholarships, but canvassing the need to ensure the evolution of Nigeria scholarships for less-endowed nations of Africa, especially West Africa, and I was touched by his spirit of Pan Africanism\u201d, he stated.<\/span><\/p>\n

In his address, the vice-chancellor appealed to both the organised private sector and various Federal Government agencies to give more support and collaboration to the university so as to continue to deliver on her teaching, research, extension and corporate social responsibility to the public.<\/span><\/p>\n

Balogun enjoined the beneficiaries of the scholarship not to apply the skills acquired to benefit only themselves but mankind.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
