In his address, Founder of NAGAFF and the Academy’s Visitor, Dr. Boniface Aniebonam, pointed out that matriculation in all higher Institute of learning marks the formal admission of fresh students into the institution, including the oath of admission and signing of the matriculation register before they could be regarded as bona-fide students of the institution.

Aniebonam encourage the students to face their academics squarely and not to give room to the devil, stressing that the Academy would maintain zero tolerance for all anti-social behaviours, such as cultism, examination malpractice, hooliganism, prostitution, among others.

He further advised them to keep to the matriculation oaths and stay away from any act that might constitute a breach to the peace of the Academy’s community, warning that culprits would be dealt with in accordance with the institution rules and regulations.

The Visitor used the opportunity to remind them of the need to be security conscious in view of the state of the nation and to avoid keeping late at nights.

Aniebonam, who expressed joy over the milestone achievement, announced his decision to pay one year tuition fee for the 33 students and prayed God to enable them to actualise their goals of excellence in their academic pursuit.
