Professor Abdulrasheed Na’Allah, on Monday, bowed out of the University of Abuja and handed over the affairs of the institution to the acting Vice Chancellor, Prof. Aisha Maikudi.

Na’Allah was appointed as the vice-chancellor of the university on July 1, 2019.

Prior to his appointment as UniAbuja VC, he served as VC of state-owned Kwara State University, Malete in Kwara State.

A graduate of the University of Ilorin in 1988, Na’Allah also obtained his Masters degree from the same institution in 1992 before proceeding to the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada, where he obtained his PhD in comparative literature.

While delivering his handover speech, Na’Allah expressed his gratitude to the university community for the opportunity given him to serve.

He stated: “I am grateful to have a strong team to have worked with me and I am handing over to the same great team. It is my prayer that the university will continue to make giant strides. I will continue to support the university in whatever way I can.

“I am going to be on sabbatical so technically, I’m still with this university as I do my sabbatical.”
