The third and fourth lecture series of Faculty of Social Sciences, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Anambra State, kicked off today, 29th September, 2021 at the Igbariam campus of the University.
The event with the theme, “Social Exchange Theory and the Nigerian Trajectories: Sustaining an (Un) Holy Matrimony”, as well as “Impactful Tertiary Education: Panacea For Youth Unemployment in Nigeria”, has in attendance members of the academia, guests and students of the University, with Professor Peter Olapegba, of University of Ilorin and Engineer Vincent Okeke, of Intercolor Industries Limited, as resource persons.
Declaring the lecture series open, the Chairman of the event, and Chief of Staff to Governor Obiano, Chief Primus Odili, thanked organisers for such event with topical issues, which he said will help shape societal discourse and inform public opinion on national issues.
He noted that the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship and rule of international morality will remain a mirage, until the philosophy which holds one race superior and others inferior is permanently discredited and abandoned in Nigeria and other African nations.
