Professor Njodi therefore called on Nigerians especially the younger one’s to expand their quest for knowledge to environment other than their own so that the Unity in diversity of the Nigerian State can be deepen in the interest of nation building and cohesion.
Earlier speaking the National Vice President North East of the Alumni Dr. Shettima Abdullahi reveals that they were at the Government House to celebrate with Professor Njodi an Alumnus of UNN on appointment as the SSG and to thank Governor Inuwa Yahaya for deeming it fit to appoint and reappoint one of their own.

He says the reappointment of Professor Ibrahim Abubakar Njodi as SSG did not come as an accident, given his track record as an excellent administrator and a crack academic with years of unqualifiable knowledge and experience.
Dr. Jafar Waziri expresses gratitude to Governor Inuwa Yahaya for not only appointing one of their own as SSG but flooding his cabinet with academics and technocrats who have got intellectual versatility to deliver when it matters the most.
