Reflecting on her tenure, Babalola recounted the university’s growth from a student population of 57 with nine programs in November 2017 to over 1500 students enrolled in 24 accredited programs.

She attributed this progress to the vision of the founder, Dr. Mrs. Winifred Awosika, whose story of starting Chrisland schools with five children inspired Babalola’s own efforts to advance the university.

Babalola proudly noted the university’s achievements in academic excellence, with all programs receiving 100 percent accreditation and students excelling nationally and internationally.

Since its provisional license in 2017 and permanent approval in 2019, Chrisland University has expanded from its first graduating class of seven students to 185 at this convocation.

She also called on the Federal Government to revise the Nigerian Education Loan Fund law to include students from private tertiary institutions, asserting that all Nigerian students should have access to educational loans.

The convocation will also feature the induction of the first cohort of 22 nursing graduates into the Midwifery and Nursing Council of Nigeria.
