I am glad to introduce Wisdom University to all my lovely readers across the globe. You are most welcome to share in the dream of Wisdom University. It’s not an accident your path crossed this path. This is because Wisdom is dutifully spreading its arms to receive people like you into its confines; people who will join build this dream for the purpose of sustaining the dream for ours and up-coming generations to emulate these worthy precepts for learning.

This information is meant reveal the policy position of the institution. It is based on this premise that Wisdom University would be most effective travelling on a well define vision, mission and goals.

Wisdom University came into the limelight in 1991 as a thought, a dream and now a vision while I was seeking for admission to enroll into a degree program in Prairie College Canada after my Diploma program in Nigeria. The admission letter, the college brochure and all its contents as sent to me from Canada became the raw material of thought for which this dream was birthed.

Coming up with this dream was tasking but inspiring as the packing of this institution into a global platform of learning was generated from the experiences our journey encountered. Since then, the institution has been growing leaps and bounds until 2019 when Covid 19 pandemic hit the globe.  Covid 19 was a big threat to the world but not the end of the world.

We defined Covid 19 has another challenge on health and therefore requires every effort to curve it. It was here the wisdom university started getting involved with online research and lecture that later gave a clue to taking the institution online for global collaboration. This was another rebirth of Wisdom University. Going virtual has been tasking but the tasks is becoming a learning laboratory for improvement every day.

Wisdom University is not just another school but a new dimension. Hence our effectiveness will be driven by conscious concentration on some priorities which this introduction seeks to address as a priority. The critical areas Wisdom University wishes to address include Education and Diplomacy. We believe the institution can have a significant long-lasting impact on the lives of the great and young all round humanity when focus is maintained in handling Education and Diplomacy conjointly as a tool for change and transformation.

The Wisdom University believes that its vision, mission and goals will be achieved by drafting more stakeholders into a cooperation that serves us better. This is the reason we have gone beyond the shores of Africa to seek global collaboration that produced the leadership structure of the institution for proper accountability.

The leadership structure policy of the institution was conceived to accelerate the work of the institution. As an online institution, the following structures are in place: Besides the International President and CEO, there is in place a Global Chancellor, a Global Vice Chancellor and Continental Deputy Vice Chancellors who oversee the work of the institution in their continents. Furthermore, the institution also considers the effectiveness of the work with Advisers a paramount key to its success, hence appointing among notable citizens of various countries to fill in as Global advisors.

Wisdom University is not just another University added to the world, but an idea, a dream, a force for global transformation and restoration of what humanity lost through sharing of intellectual knowledge or wisdom acquired through experience and pain.

Wisdom was formed to help the less privileged get over the crossroads of life to their definite places in life, and to help the privileged leverage on more opportunities the institution introduces from time to time.

Wisdom University as seen in its intelligently crafted logo; it represents Light, knowledge, force, honor and excellence. The sun in our logo represents illumination, brightness, bringing to light what is missed. While the book in the logo represents knowledge or Wisdom. Impacting knowledge will be the priority of this institution. Hammer in the logo represents a force to remove barriers to learning on the paths of those who choose to learn under this institution. While the four-corner cap represents the four corners of the world. Simply means uniting the world under Wisdom. Finally, the scroll on the logo represents excellence. Training our students to go beyond ordinary life. We make them see beyond earning salaries but living and excellent life in all ramifications as providers of labour.

Before I end this introduction, I wish to let all travelers on this path know that, Wisdom University didn’t just come down through imaginary thoughts but a conscious perception of what to expect. It was consciously thought up and patiently nursed till it became a global phenomenon in 2012.

Already our impact is felt in Argentina, USA, Italy, Germany, Albania, Peru, Dominican, India, Pakistan, Macedonia, Philippines, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Algeria, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Morocco, Turkey, Brazil, Jordan, Israel, Ghana, South Africa, Togo, Sierra Leon, Kenya, Congo, Nigeria and Cameron etc. This was possible because we never used conventional method to accelerate but a Diplomatic pattern. Love for humanity brought us here.

Transforming the world through Education and Diplomacy is the new concept that orchestrated the expansion of our scope of operation. In lieu of this, the office of a Honorary Chancellor Diplomacy to regulate the activities of Diplomatic affairs across the world was introduced.

As we expand the vision, we seek for worthy collaborators who will join force with ours to make more sense globally. It was on this premise that we obtained the following accreditations across the world which raises the confidence of our students and partners.

A warm and affectionate welcome to all the students who aspire to be a part of the intellectual fraternity Wisdom University, Gombe this is the start of academic journey and quality learning for brighter future. After joining as the Vice-Chancellor of the Wisdom University of Gombe I would like to extend my good wishes to all the students, scholars, teachers, officers, staff and all other stake holders of this university. Expecting the best possible support and cooperation from all concerned.

Building a thriving educational institution requires collective commitment, dedication, a high sense of responsibility and a service-oriented mindset on the part of all stakeholders. Thus the vision and mission of our Wisdom University of Gombe can be carried out in letter and spirit. As the head of this prospering University, I have the moral, ethical, professional responsibility and commitment to continue the best work of my predecessors and also strive hard to make this University one of the best universities in world. As has been correctly stated, my strength comes from you—the strength and support we receive from stakeholders will shape the present and future of this university.

With changing trends in academia, research and innovation in mind, the education sector is witnessing massive change and accepting change is necessary to excel. Effective use of technology and blended modes of teaching and learning is now a standard.

Technology has accomplished many things, in its quest for excellence, in educating and creating a human, inclusive and sustainable society.

I am confident that our faculty will be able to respond quickly to changes in the learning environment and successfully transition to a digital and virtual environment.

As educators, it is our moral duty to guide and support the students and help them achieve their academic and personal goals and ensure that the benefits of education reach out the students with different abilities and needs. We should equip our students with the skills of the twenty-first century and prepare them as responsible citizens, who will give back to the community. Our future is full of challenges and we should be ready to meet them with the determination to be successful. With the clear vision and competent leadership of our management, we will surely progress as an institution that will be a reference for other educational institutions worldwide.

 I am pleased that our university is taking the necessary steps to bring about change and taking a contemporary approach. Our university has the best of the best professors and qualified support staff too. We all must note that in our academic domain and society as a whole, universities are always looked up with the expectation of: high-standard academic practices, research and publications of high quality that have the potentiality to encourage further research and also impact the society and a specific domain, innovations for solving socio-economic and allied problems, community engagement, etc. So we need to work in a holistic way and encourage the faculty and student community to come up to the institutional and societal expectations for the larger benefit and collective growth. At this University, we have the custom and culture of encouraging and motivating such exemplary- work by the sincere and hardworking faculty/staff and students to contribute their best to this institution and also nation building.

 The Wisdom University intends to achieve excellence in higher education by offering most relevant, up-to-date programmes of studies considering the needs of present and future developments and nation building. Course curriculum has to be regularly revised and updated considering local, national and international needs and incorporating latest developments in the area.

 University regularly organizes seminars/symposia/work shops/Conferences, etc. to promote advancement of knowledge through cross fertilization of ideas. Meetings of the statutory bodies like Senate, Syndicate, Academic Council are regularly held. An Implementation Cell has been constituted to monitor regular progress of university developmental activities and to monitor implementation of decisions taken at various levels.

 As an institution, our current accomplishments are indeed impressive, but we should not settle for the same thing. We should work even harder to maintain quality and realize the university’s vision and mission through high-quality education, cutting-edge research and innovative, student- and community-focused initiatives.

 The web-site of the university is regularly updated and is designed to receive feedback from the public domain. I call upon all the members of university fraternity- the students, teachers, officers, non-teaching employees as well as all well-wishers of the university to provide us with their valuable suggestions in order to gear up the university system to take it to greater heights of excellence in academic arena.

 As one of you, I always encourage every constructive effort to improve the community and institutional growth of our university. Let’s work together, succeed together and this is how we can make this University – a distinguished institution.
