It is a goal of the Federal University of Technology, Minna
to work beyond the walls of its campus. One of the most
effective ways of doing this is to offer our facilities to
those who are pursuing knowledge, truth and
understanding. 
It is essential to recognise today social, charitable and
personal contributions which have had a substantial and
long-lasting impact on the well-being of what are commonly
referred to as 'these islands'. 
Sport is a unifying force - it brings together parishes,
counties, provinces and the nation in support of a common
cause and helps to boost national morale and raise the
international profile of our country. It is therefore
eminently appropriate that this university should recognise
and honour those who epitomise the finest virtues of sport and
who have contributed substantially to the enhancement of
Ireland's sporting heritage.  .
The Federal University of Technology, Minna - honouring
those who use their achievements to benefit the people of this
city and region and show special appreciation to those who
have contributed to the development of this great
institution. 
Demonstrating our respect for cultural achievements on the
national and international stage. 
There is no idea so uplifting as the idea of service to
humanity.
Woodrow Wilson  .
We acknowledge the remarkable contribution of individual's
to the betterment of the lives of those past, present, and to
come. | |
