Alonta in a short testimony said: “Today, I was honoured to receive the Vice-Chancellor’s Special Merit Award/Recognition for my exemplary service to Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, in 2023.
“Out of the recipients, I am grateful to emerge as the overall best Teaching Staff after a meticulous evaluation of 15 assessment parameters by Servicom and Quality Assurance of the University.
“In dedicating this unprecedented recognition to my students (past, present, and prospective), I extend my profound gratitude to the University Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Charles Okechukwu Esimone, FAS, for this remarkable acknowledgment.
“Special thanks go to the Faculty of Education, my esteemed Department – Technology and Vocational Education (Business Education), and the diligent Screening Committee.
“Above all, I acknowledge and thank God Almighty, for without His guidance, such achievements would not be possible. With God by my side, I am committed to consistently delivering my best in the service of the University, humanity, and God. So help me God.”
