The overseer stated that  the centre needs to sustain the tempo of advocacy campaign  to ensure enrollment into the university is achieved. 

The campaign team was received at the secretariat by the Deputy Chairman of the Council, Mr. Danladin Gezawa. 

The team’s lead and overseer narrated the trends that led to the establishment of the National Open University of Nigeria and the purpose of setting up the university.

The campaign train later moved to the neighbouring Gezawa Local Government, where it visited the General Hospital and were welcomed by the secretary to the hospital, Mr. Kamal Ibrahim. 

Speaking at the hospital, the overseer pointed out the availability of health programmes for the hospital workers to patronise. 

Responding, Mr. Ibrahim appreciated the management of the centre for the privilege given to them. 

Without the visit, many of us wouldn't have gained more insight on the existence and mode of operation of the NOUN,” the hospital’s secretary said

He promised to encourage the staff of the hospital to enroll in order to uplift their certificates and gain further experience.
