BAZE FOCUS Magazine is six years old and Baze University is Twelve Years Old! It is important to recognize the contributions of all the staff, students and Alumni that add value to our brand. As the world overcomes the post COVID –19 pandemic challenges; it is important to remind ourselves of how this university navigated the lockdown period without truncating academic activities. The IT digital platform allowed a seamless migration to remote learning and the students never lost mileage in their studies. The robust platform allows the use of advance IT tools to make online learning easy and impactful. Baze Focus Magazine provides a platform to share major events, achievements and new innovation with members of the public. This is the 2022 Edition and it coincides with the 9th Convocation Ceremonies. Today is an auspicious moment as the University celebrates the graduation of Class 2022 and presents graduands to the public. We make bold to state that our graduands carry our mark of excellence in learning and in character and considering the rigorous tutelage they were exposed to, there is no doubt that they will excel in their future endeavours. I congratulate the parents and sponsors of the graduands and applaud their commitment to investment in quality education. Today, economies are knowledge driven and quality University Education holds the key to a better life. Baze University is the destination of choice as the Baze Brand keeps its promise on excellence.
