The first female president of the Student Union Government of the University of Calabar, Blessing Alims, has awarded cash of N1 million to Moses Udofia, who emerged as the overall best-graduating student of the institution.

Alims confirmed this on Sunday in Calabar, noting that Udofia, a student of the ing Department, had the highest Cumulative Grade Point Average of 4.92/5.00.

She hinted that the award, held in commemoration of the 50th anniversary and 37th convocation of the institution, is in line with her istration’s commitment to academic excellence and to encourage other students of the institution to be dedicated and intentional with their studies.

She said, “In line with my istration’s commitment to academic excellence, I have successfully transferred N1 million to the best-graduating student, Moses Udofia from the ing Department with a perfect CGPA of 4.92/5.00.

“The Cross River State Commissioner of Finance, Dr. Michael Odere, has generously contributed ₦500,000 to honour Udofia’s exceptional academic achievements.”


She added that the recognition is not only to celebrate Udofia’s dedication but also aims to motivate him and other students to pursue excellence.

The awardee, Udofia, while speaking to newsmen, revealed that the award from the SUG is a testament to the fact that academic excellence is still recognized, despite the high level of mediocracy that is currently pervading the entire educational landscape and the world at large.

He said, “I want to say a big thank you to the SUG President, Comrade Blessing Alims, the school management and every student. I also want to encourage others never to give up on their dreams.

“This award is a testament that academic excellence can still be recognized and celebrated despite the mediocracy in the education sector. To other students, always be committed to whatever you are doing as if your life depends on it and you will meet success in the end.”

Waooooo. That's a good one. First time in recent years am hearing of a handsome reward in the education sector.
Its often times for reality shows and pageants.
God bless the SUG President and her team for thinking right.

This is a donated money not from the purse of the SUG

I wasn't part of the SUG executives during tertiary but I was closed to those in charge.

Infact the money donated could be more than 1 million because the SUG executives would also have their own share

I am telling you how things work within the SUG..

The SUG executives are not different from the NASS , money first. Before they can gift N1m out, they must have been smiling within with their largesse
