The Redeemer’s College of Technology and Management (RECTEM) has been named fastest growing private polytechnic by the National Board For Technical Education (NBTE).
Its rector, Dr. Stella Mofunanya, who made the revelation at the fifth matriculation said the college’s pride of place as a centre for academic excellence and youth development in the comity of polytechnics was second to none.
During the exercise, the college formally admitted 326 students into various programmes.
She admonished the freshmen that RECTEM was an institution where the fear of God reigned supreme and everyone was committed to high moral and academic standards, in line with the motto: “Raising Champions.”
According to Mofunanya, the institution emphasise discipline and spiritual development, “since spiritual indiscipline and emptiness lead to all sorts of deviance, lack of integrity and a destitute life.”
She, therefore, implored the students to obey the rules and regulations of the polytechnic, which have been put in place for their optimal development, adding that the institution’s aim was to nurture the students’ growth and development in all facets of life.
Mofunanaya affirmed that the mission of RECTEM was to be a trailblazer in raising champions, who will be first-class professionals in the field of science, technology and management for middle-level technological needs of the nation.
The college, she noted, has continued to focus on its God-given mandates of excellence in teaching, research and service to the society, as enshrined in the school’s vision and mission statement.
