Founder’s Note
The Founder’s Note
The dream that began in 1996 became a plan around 2001, started being pursued in 2008, came to life in 2011, and we now celebrate its first decade.
Having graduated over 2,000, an alumnus flew back to Abuja with me from Lagos, where he had as a Lawyer just concluded a property sale for his client - joy, to describe the feeling, could be an understatement.
Not only has Baze University obtained the National Universities Commission’s (NUC) Approvals for all Faculties, a whole new institution in the form of a Teaching Hospital has been established.
The operating environment, as challenging as ever could be, was kind to enable easy and seamless switch-over to real e-learning at the peak of Covid19, thanks to the sustained investment in our IT infrastructure. Our banking relationships have grown stronger, and to higher levels supported by our encouraging performance. The second decade of Baze is a task beyond maintaining lead that is to rank and define us in the continent. We aspire to grow our numbers, develop our Second Campus at Bwari possibly with a School of Aviation, Bazeria Gardens, a fishery, and a series of wonderful ideas, subject to the approval of all regulatory bodies.
May the gentle royal soul of our Late Visitor, the Emir of Zazzau Alh. (Dr) Shehu Idris CFR be ever rested in perfect peace. We lost a true irreplaceable Leader in His Highness.
Vision holding is a recurrent responsibility to an enterprise, and a salient duty to the community. Our sustenance is irrevocably tied to the welfare of our nation.
With Focus sharpened, we consolidate our mission and set to break new records.
Sen. Y.D. Baba-Ahmed, Ph.D
Founder, Pro-Chancellor
