Dr. Yohannes noted that the University delivered beyond their expectation. He urged the University management to participate in Intra-Africa academic mobility program where 3 different universities from different regions of the continent apply to have their students study and have exchanges amongst themselves.

On his part the Ag. Vice Chancellor, Prof. Isaac Mbeche welcomed the collaboration citing the importance of a University like UoN to support organizations like the AU to fulfill their mandate.

The Deputy Vice Chancellor Academic Affairs, Prof. Julius Ogeng’o noted that he had fruitful deliberations with the AU delegation. He expressed his belief that the University will endeavour to improve if not maintain the high quality standards of service delivery.

The university promised to participate and support the AU Intra-Africa mobility program.
