Nigerian Senator, Gbenga Ashafa who spoke after the investiture of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as
patron of the university’s Centre for African Entrepreneurship and
Leadership on Tuesday, pleaded with the University of
Wolverhampton in the United Kingdom to dedicate an academic course to
the study of the political style of Tinubu in the revered institution,
The Punch reports.
The Nigerian senator explained that if the university can do it, it will go a
long way in instilling the values of opposition politics in its
students.
“I suggest that the centre should consider the option of studying
his (Tinubu’s) methodologies of leadership with the ultimate goal of
developing a curriculum on it. This, I believe, would prove immensely
beneficial to future generations that would pass through the four walls
of this institution,” Ashafa said.
The lawmaker who extoled the former Lagos governor on the award,
reiterated that it was well deserved. He said the APC national leader
had long shown himself to be a leader.
According to him, it was imperative for the school to forge alliances
with African personalities in order to widen its academic prospect.
“I commend the university for carefully identifying and selecting
the person of Asiwaju Tinubu, our leader, as the patron of the CAEL.
“Having had the awesome privilege of going through the curriculum of
the centre and its mission, I make bold to say that the choice of
Tinubu is perfect, being a colossus that has excelled in nurturing
global leadership and entrepreneurship.
