The former governor said this at the maiden convocation ceremony of the Edo University, Iyamho, Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State.

He hailed the governor for sustainable development of the Edo University Iyamho, as the institution is positioned to become a world-class ivory tower.

He also announced N1 million cash gift for each of the five first class graduands of the institution.

It was recalled that Oshiomhole on Saturday apologised to the Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki; Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, and Chancellor of the Edo State University, Iyahmo, Dr. Makanjuola, over the recent attack on their convoy at his (Oshiomhole) country home in Estako West Local Government.

The former Edo State Governor said the people that carried out the attack were the thugs who invaded the university community on the orders of the Deputy Governor of the state, Hon Philip Shaibu.
