Building Confidence, Community Ahead of Semester Examinations

As Wigwe University students prepare for the commencement of the semester examinations next week, the HOW Foundation’s University Liaison Unit, in partnership with the University Management, organized a fun-filled and refreshing engagement for students.

The event created an opportunity to hear directly from students about their campus experiences while exploring practical ways to strengthen student life and foster a more vibrant, supportive, and engaging university community.

With an atmosphere filled with great food, refreshing drinks, exciting games, music, and meaningful conversations, the gathering provided students with a welcome opportunity to unwind, connect, and recharge ahead of the examination period.

A highlight of the event was an interactive session led by humanitarian and mental health advocate, Lady Diana Eyo-Enoette, whose thoughtful facilitation inspired students, boosted their confidence, and reinforced the importance of personal wellbeing as they prepare for their examinations.

Earlier in the week, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Marwan Al-Akaidi, had welcomed the HOW Foundation delegation, led by Ms. Susan Odeere, who had paid a courtesy visit to the Vice-Chancellor, during which they discussed opportunities for collaboration to enhance the overall student experience.

During the meeting, Professor Al-Akaidi reaffirmed the University’s commitment to partnering with the Foundation on initiatives that promote student wellbeing, personal development, and a rewarding campus experience.

At Wigwe University, we believe that academic excellence is strengthened by a supportive learning environment where students are encouraged to thrive intellectually, socially, and emotionally. Initiatives such as this reflect our commitment to nurturing well-rounded graduates who are equipped for success both inside and outside the classroom.
