AL-HIKAMAH UNIVERSITY, ILORIN ANNOUNCES MATRICULATION CEREMONY
Get ready for a very special celebration! Al-Hikmah University in Ilorin, Nigeria, has just shared some big news. It is time for the 29th Matriculation Ceremony. This university is very famous because it was the very first Islamic faith-based university in the whole country.
If you are a new student who just got admitted, this day is all about you! It is a day of smiles, big robes, and new promises as you officially become a part of the university family.
When and Where is the Big Day?
You will want to make sure your family and friends know exactly where to go so they can see you walk onto the stage. Here are the details you should save:
-
The Date: Friday, 30th January 2026.
-
The Time: 10:00 a.m. Sharp (It is very important to be in your seat before the clock strikes ten!)
-
The Venue: The University Auditorium.
The University Auditorium is a large, beautiful building on the campus where the most important meetings happen. Because this is the 29th time the school has done this, they know exactly how to make it a wonderful and organized morning for everyone.
What Happens During Matriculation?
You might be asking, “What does ‘Matriculation’ actually mean?” Think of it like a “Signing Day” for a sports team. Before this day, you were just someone who was invited to the school. After this ceremony, you are an official student.
During the event, you will do something called an induction. This means you will stand up with all the other new students and take an oath. You will promise to follow the rules of Al-Hikmah University, to study hard, and to be a good person. This ceremony is the “Green Light” that says your academic journey has officially started!
Getting Ready for the Ceremony
To make sure you have the best day ever, here are a few simple things you can do to prepare:
-
Pick Up Your Gown: Most matriculation ceremonies require you to wear a special academic robe. Make sure you check with your faculty office a few days before Friday to get yours.
-
Arrive Early: Since the ceremony starts at 10:00 a.m., you should try to be at the Auditorium by 9:00 a.m. This gives you time to find your friends and take pictures before the serious part begins.
-
Invite Your Loved Ones: This is a proud moment for your parents and guardians. Make sure they know the time so they can find a good seat to watch you.
-
Follow the Rules: Al-Hikmah is a faith-based university, which means they love it when students are respectful and dress neatly.
Why Al-Hikmah is Special
By joining Al-Hikmah University, you are joining a school that cares about two things: Learning and Morality. This means they don’t just want you to be smart; they want you to be a kind and honest leader too. Starting your journey with the 29th Matriculation Ceremony is a great way to show that you are ready to grow and learn.
We are so happy for all the “freshers” who will be taking their oath this Friday. It is the first step toward becoming a doctor, a lawyer, a scientist, or whatever big dream you have in your heart!

First, you will learn about the Academic Structure. This is just a fancy way of saying you will learn how your classes are set up and how your grades will be counted. Second, you will hear about the Regulations. These are the rules of the school. Knowing the rules helps you stay out of trouble and keep your grades high. Finally, you will learn about Campus Life.

-
Wear Something Nice: You only get one chance to make a first impression. Wear something that makes you feel smart and confident.

The Franco-British International University is very excited to have you on campus. They have built a beautiful school in Kaduna just for you, and they can’t wait to see you start your journey to becoming a professional. Welcome to FBIU!

View AllFEDERAL UNIVERSITY, LAFIA (FULAFIA) VC APPOINTS NEW DEAN, OTHERS
The big boss of the Federal University of Lafia (FULafia), whose name is Prof. Shehu Abdul Rahman (the Vice-Chancellor), has picked some very smart and hard-working people to help lead the school. When a university grows, it needs great leaders to make sure the students are learning well and everything is running smoothly.
The University’s Registrar, Dr. Nuradeen Abdu, shared this news with everyone in a special message. These new appointments are like picking team captains for different departments. Their main job is to make sure the school stays strong and helps every student succeed!
A New Dean for the Animal Doctors
The first big announcement is about the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. This is where students go to learn how to take care of animals and become veterinarians.
Prof. M. D. Salihu has been chosen to be the Dean of this faculty. Being a Dean is a very important job—it means he is the leader of all the teachers and students in that part of the school. Prof. Salihu comes from the Department of Veterinary Medicine, so he already knows a lot about helping animals.
His new job will start on February 12, 2026, and he will be the leader there for two whole years. Everyone is excited to see how he will make the faculty even better!
New Heads for Building and Planning
The Vice-Chancellor didn’t stop there! He also picked two other leaders for a part of the school called the Faculty of Environmental Design. These teachers will help lead departments that teach students how to build cities and measure building materials.
Leading the Quantity Surveyors
Dr. Dogo Bitrus Ajeye has a new job! He usually works in the Department of Geography, but now he will be the Acting Head of the Department of Quantity Survey. Quantity surveyors are the experts who figure out how much money and materials are needed to build big things like bridges and houses. Dr. Ajeye will lead this group for one year.
Leading the City Planners
Dr. Abejide Lewis Emmanuel Olumuyiwa is also stepping up to lead! He is from the Department of Geography too, but he has been appointed as the Acting Head of the Department of Urban and Regional Planning. This department teaches students how to design beautiful and safe cities. His new leadership role will also last for one year.
Both of these leaders are starting their new jobs right away!
Why Are These Appointments Important?
You might wonder why the school moves people around like this. The university’s message explained that these changes are made to help the “academic structures.” This is a fancy way of saying they want to make sure the school is organized perfectly.
When you have the right leaders in the right places:
-
Teachers work better together.
-
Students get better help with their studies.
-
The school can finish big projects faster.
-
Everything is done more efficiently.
The Federal University of Lafia wants to be one of the best schools in the country, and having leaders like Prof. Salihu, Dr. Ajeye, and Dr. Abejide is a big step toward that goal.
A Quick Summary of the New Leaders
-
Prof. M. D. Salihu: New Dean of Veterinary Medicine (Starts Feb 12, for 2 years).
-
Dr. Dogo Bitrus Ajeye: New Head of Quantity Survey (Starts now, for 1 year).

View AllNIGERIAN ARMY UNIVERSITY, BIU ANNOUNCES MATRICULATION CEREMONY
here is big, exciting news for everyone at the university! The school leaders have finished making the plans for a very special day. This is the day when all the new students—called fresh students—officially join the university family. This event is called the Matriculation Ceremony, and it is like a grand “welcome home” party for your brains!
If you are a new student, this is a day you will remember forever. You will wear a fancy robe, walk with your friends, and make a promise to be the best student you can be. Here is everything you need to know about where to go, what time to wake up, and what you must do before the big day arrives.
When and Where is the Big Event?
The university has chosen a very large space so that everyone—students, teachers, and parents—can fit comfortably. Instead of a small classroom, we are moving the party outside to the fresh air!
-
The Date: Monday, 16th February 2026
-
The Time: 8:30 a.m. (This is when the music and excitement start!)
-
The Place: The University Temporary Site, specifically on the Football Pitch.
Since the event is on a football pitch, there will be plenty of room for everyone. Just look for the big tents and the people wearing colorful gowns!
The Grand Parade: How the Morning Works
A matriculation ceremony is not like a normal meeting; it follows a very special tradition called a procession. This is basically a very slow, proud parade where people walk in groups.
First, all the students need to find their friends from the same Faculty (that is the big group for your course, like Science, Arts, or Engineering). You should meet near the football pitch early in the morning.
At 8:40 a.m., the student parade begins! You will walk together into the venue to find your seats. Then, at 9:00 a.m. sharp, the “Big Bosses” of the school—the Senate and Congregation—will walk in. This is a very serious and happy moment, so everyone should be in their seats by then.
The Most Important Step: Don’t Forget the Portal!
Before you can put on your gown and join the parade, the school needs to make sure you are officially “on the list.” To be on the list, you must finish your registration.
Think of registration like signing up for a team. If you don’t sign up, you can’t play in the game! You must go to the university website and finish all your paperwork and payments.
Pay Attention: The computer portal for registration will CLOSE on Friday, 30th January 2026.
If you miss this date, you might not be allowed to join the matriculation ceremony. That would be like missing your own birthday party! Make sure you sit down at a computer and finish everything before that Friday arrives.
Tips for a Perfect Matriculation Day
To make sure your day goes perfectly, here are some simple tips for every new student:
-
Be Early: 8:30 a.m. is when it starts, but the best students arrive even earlier to find their Faculty group.
-
Wear Your Gown: You will look like a real scholar in your academic robe. Make sure it is clean and neat.
-
Charge Your Camera: Your family will want to take 1,000 pictures of you! Make sure your phone or camera is ready to go.
-
Listen to the Leaders: When the teachers tell you where to walk, follow their directions so the parade looks beautiful.
This ceremony is the start of your journey to becoming a doctor, an engineer, a teacher, or a leader. We are so proud of you for getting into the university, and we can’t wait to see you on the football pitch on February 16th!

The teachers and leaders at the School of Postgraduate Studies (SPGS) have sent out a message to everyone. They have changed the place where the big 2026 Matriculation Ceremony will happen.
Even though the building has changed, the day and the time are exactly the same as before. This is a very big event because it is the official day you become a “real” student of this famous school.
Where is the New Secret Spot?
At first, everyone thought the ceremony would be in one place, but now it has moved. The new home for the ceremony is the Prof. Nurudeen Alao Auditorium. This special room is found inside the Distance Learning Institute (DLI) building right on the UNILAG campus.
If you are trying to find it, just look for the DLI signs. It is a big, beautiful room where important things happen. Moving the ceremony to this new spot helps make sure there is enough space for everyone to sit comfortably and enjoy the morning.

In the world of the university, “10:00 a.m. sharp” actually means you should probably be there much earlier. Imagine trying to find a seat when hundreds of other people are also looking for one! It is a good idea to arrive around 9:00 a.m. or 9:30 a.m. That way, you can fix your gown, take some photos with your friends, and find a great seat right in the front.
What is a Matriculation Ceremony Anyway?
You might be wondering, “Why is this one morning so important?” Think of it like a giant “Welcome to the Team” party. When you finish high school or your first degree, you move up to higher levels. Postgraduate students are the “big kids” on campus—they are studying to become experts, doctors, and great leaders.
During this ceremony, you will wear a special long robe called an academic gown. You will stand up and promise to follow the rules of the school and to work very hard. This promise is called an oath. Once the ceremony is over, you are officially part of the UNILAG family. This is why the school wants to make sure the venue is perfect.

The School’s Special Message
The leaders at UNILAG want everyone to stay calm and happy. They know that changing the place where a party happens can be a little confusing, but they are doing it to make the day better for you. They are very proud of all the new students who got in this year.
By moving the event to the DLI Auditorium, they are making sure that the 2026 class has the best start possible. They want you to remember this day for the rest of your life.
