first degree.
Pastor Enoch Adeboye
Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, the General Overseer of Redeemed
Christian Church of God, RCCG, has said that jollof rice and chicken
being enjoyed by the students of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN,
way back in 1962, made him to choose the UNN as a university where he
would do his first degree.
According to Vanguard, Adeboye who was awarded with an honorarily
doctorate degree of Doctor of Divinity, DD by the University on Tuesday,
said that he developed interest in the University when he went with his
fellow students on an excursion to UNN in 1962 and saw students eating
jollof rice with half a chicken.
The cleric said that when he saw the way the students were enjoying
then, he decided that he God permitted, he would come to UNN to study
and lucky enough, the following year, 1963, he gained admission into the
prestigious University.
Carried by what he saw, Adeboye said that, “I took a pebble
from the ground asked God to make me come to the University. The
following year, 1963, God answered my prayers.”
Adeboye however regretted that he could not graduate from the
University as he left in 1966 without a degree. He expressed joy,
however, that sixty years later, he has now been awarded a doctorate
degree from the same University and professors call him, ‘daddy.’
“I left UNN in 1966 without a degree. Sixty years later, I have
gotten a degree from UNN, now not as a first degree but a doctorate
degree. That is why I feel elated. I am overwhelmed,” he said.
Speaking at the occasion, Pro-chancellor of the University, Mr.
Emmanuel Ukala, said that Adeboye deserved the honourary degree because
he was a man of achievement.
“It is necessary to point out, distinguished ladies and
gentlemen, that the University of Nigeria places high premium on
positive, and the road to the attainment of its honourary degree is
quite tight indeed.
“As a result, anyone that successfully moves through the tight
rope deserves our honour and veneration. I, therefore congratulate
Pastor E. A Adeboye for his selection for the award of the honourary
degree of the University. Welcome on board as a significant member of
the den of lions and lionesses,” Ukala represented by the vice chancellor, Prof. Benjamin Ozumba said.
