Quotes
- “As DVC academic, I chaired over 25 committees and I didn’t have any major issue. So, I think it’s a question of one’s personality, one’s management style and as I said, I have been in university for quite some time. So, I have paid my dues.”
- “I found it so absorbing, I love reading, it came easy to me.”
- “I started in 1965 as astudent and that was nice, it was enjoyable, the facilities were okay and we enjoyed the attention of our lecturers, you know, we had very small classes and we interacted with them, they kept note of us, they knew what we were doing. I mean there was no lecturer who didn’t know who and who were in the groups. And I graduated in 1968 with a BA in English at that time, 2nd Class Upper Division, the only one in the class that year.”
- “Well, becoming a professor, yes. Because if you joined the academic staff in the university, you’ll be looking forward to becoming a professor but the Deputy Vice-Chancellor thing, it wasn’t on my mind at all.”
- “I was dealing with the entire community with a wider forum; I think people liked the way I went about things.”
- “I think it’s also important to show that it doesn’t have to be a male terrain completely, if there are competent women, we should give them positions on merit. But don’t look down on somebody and say, she is a woman, she can’t do it or he’s a man, he can’t do it. That would be a wrong attitude.”
