The Vice-Chancellor (VC) of the university, Prof Hyacinth Ichoku, while receiving the winning team at the institution, described the feat as a victory for the university and the country as a whole. 

He said winning the championship had further opened another new set of opportunities for the university and Nigeria as the students would represent Africa in the intercontinental debate that would be held in New York, USA, from April 1, 2023. 

“And furthermore, they will also go to Madrid in Spain to represent Nigeria in the global universities championship that will also take place in June next year.”
