A Batch “A” Corps member, Dr. Jonathan Amaefuna, posted to McPherson University (McU) in Seriki-Sotayo, Ogun State, has completed his National Youth Service‑with distinction. Amaefuna, a Ukraine-trained medical doctor, served in the university’s Health Centre.
At a send-off organised for him, the Vice-Chancellor (VC), Prof Adeniyi Agunbiade, said Amaefuna was of good behaviour all through his service year.
The Bursar, Mr Ebenezer Onilado, praised the Corps member for his professionalism and hard work, urging him to put selfless service above pecuniary gains.
The Registrar, Mrs Adebola Abegunde, hailed Amaefuna for “his courage”, saying the school would not forget his service as the first doctor to serve in the university.
She urged him to imbibe good virtues, noting that medicine is a vocation for dedicated practitioners.
The Librarian, Mr Abayomi Agboola, eulogised the Corps member and advised him to use the experience he garnered to improve his professional career and knowledge.
Responding, Amaefuna thanked the school management for giving him an opportunity to serve, saying the school created enabling environment to develop his career. According to him, interaction with members of university community and the host communities elevated his medical practice.
He said: “My stay in the university has been wonderful. I worked with great people who are strongly and professionally committed to their jobs. All through my service year, I was given free hand to do my job and there was no unnecessary intimidation. Everybody I met here is wonderful.”
At the end of the ceremony, the VC presented a gift to the Corps member, urging him to be a good ambassador of his family.
