Pastor Enoch Adeboye, the General
Overseer of the Redeemed Christian
Church of God, has been conferred
with an honorary doctorate degree by
the Obafemi Awolowo University
(OAU), Ile-Ife.
The award was conferred on Adeboye
during the 41st Special Convocation
held at the Oduduwa Hall of the OAU,
Ile-Ife on Friday.
Adeboye, an alumnus of the OAU, said
the award would spur him to
contribute more to the development of
the university.
According to him, the award should
serve as a lesson to everyone not to
look down on anybody.
According to him, what is impossible
with men are possible for God that is
why one should never write off
anybody.
He added that when late Oba Adesoji
Aderemi was given honorary award by
this university, “I said to my friends
that one day, I too will like to get an
honorary award of this university.
“My friends laughed and said if it is
something that can be worked for, he
has no doubt that I will get it because I
am hardworking and brilliant.
“He said honorary award of this kind
is only given to people of high class.
“But today, a special convocation is
holding to award an honorary
doctorate to the ordinary person of
that time.
“I am not given this particular award
today because of my scholastic work in
academics.
“The only reason why the Senate of this
university set today apart is because
God want to make a dream possible.
“I have several honorary awards from
different universities both within and
outside the country, but I waited for
this one. God has made a dream come
to pass.
“I got my Bachelor Degree in this school
and I was committed before; now I will
be more committed to the well-being of
the university.â€
OAU Vice-Chancellor Prof. Bamitale
Omole, who spoke said that with God’s
intervention the university was able to
overcome many of its challenges.
He said that God’s remained a major
drive for the university’s growth.
“Although we have challenges, God has
been faithful to us.
“I pray that God that has seen OAU
through challenges for so many years
won’t leave it,†he said.
