    Heartiest congratulations to Dr. Soluade J. Aroloye of the Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Physical and Earth Sciences, University of Lagos, on his well-deserved appointment as Deputy Director II, Adetokunbo Babatunde Sofoluwe Centre for Information Technology and Systems (ABS-CITS), UNILAG.

    This appointment is a remarkable recognition of competence, excellence, dedication and capacity. I am particularly proud and delighted because Dr. Soluade is not just a distinguished academic today; he was my secondary school mate and one of the best Mathematics students of our 1999 set. Even from those early days, his brilliance, discipline and intellectual ability were evident.

    Today, seeing that same brilliant colleague become a Lecturer at the prestigious University of Lagos and now entrusted with a leadership responsibility at ABS-CITS is truly inspiring. His new role will undoubtedly benefit from his strong academic background, analytical mind and commitment to innovation, research, teaching and technology-driven development.

    As a fellow 1999 setmate, I currently serving at the Presidency, Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (OHCSF), Department of Career Management Office, and also serving as an Assistant Chief Education Officer at the Federal Training Centre (FTC), North Central Zone, Ilorin, am especially proud to celebrate this milestone with you.

    Dr. Soluade, this appointment is well deserved! Your journey from being one of our finest Mathematics students to becoming a university lecturer and now a Deputy Director is a testament to what excellence, perseverance and purposeful growth can achieve.

    May your one-year tenure, commencing 7 September 2026, be marked by outstanding achievements, transformative ideas, greater impact and remarkable contributions to UNILAG and Nigeria’s digital future.

    Congratulations once again, my dear schoolmate and distinguished colleague. I celebrate you and wish you a highly successful and impactful tenure.
    Accept my warmest congratulations, Dr. Soluade J. Aroloye.

    Greater heights! Greater impact! Greater accomplishments! 🎉👏🏽🎓
