The Lagos State University (LASU) has congratulated one of its senior administrators, Mr. Adewunmi Samuel Olori, on his appointment as the pioneer Registrar of Greenland University, Jalingo, the first private university established in Taraba State.
The appointment marks another milestone for the university, with the management describing it as recognition of Olori’s administrative experience and LASU’s tradition of producing professionals who contribute to the growth of higher education across Nigeria.
In a congratulatory message, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, and the Registrar, Mr. Emmanuel Fanu, said Olori’s emergence reflects years of dedication to university administration and expressed confidence in his ability to help lay a solid administrative foundation for the new institution.
Before his appointment, Olori served as Deputy Registrar and Administrative Secretary of the Masters of Public Administration (MPA) Programme Office at LASU.
He joined the university in 2009 as an Administrative Officer II and rose through the ranks after serving in several strategic units of the Registry, including the Vice-Chancellor’s Office, Academic and Non-Academic Staff Establishments Divisions, the Postgraduate School, Legal Affairs Division, School of Transport and Logistics, the Registrar’s Office, the MPA Programme Office and the Centre for Financial Forensic Investigation and Analytics.
Beyond his administrative responsibilities, Olori served on more than 25 university committees in different capacities, contributing to policy implementation and institutional development.
The university management said his appointment further strengthens LASU’s reputation for producing experienced administrators who continue to occupy leadership positions in tertiary institutions across the country.
They wished him a successful tenure as he assumes responsibility for establishing the administrative structure of the newly created university.
