In a significant move aimed at bolstering the academic and administrative leadership of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University (COOU), Governor Chukwuma Soludo has appointed Professor Chidi Odinkalu as the Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of the Governing Council of the university.

Professor Odinkalu, a highly respected scholar and former chairman of the Nigerian Human Rights Commission, brings a wealth of experience and a strong reputation for integrity and excellence to his new role. His appointment is seen as a strategic step towards elevating the standards and global reputation of COOU.

Governor Soludo’s Press Secretary, Mr. Christian Aburime, released a statement outlining the governor’s vision for the new council. “The new Council, assembled with a focus on excellence, integrity, and strategic leadership, will provide guidance and oversight for the continued growth and development of the state-owned university,” the statement read.

Among the notable members of the newly constituted council is Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu, the wife of the late Igbo leader Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, whose legacy the university honors. Her involvement is expected to bring a blend of historical insight and strategic vision to the council’s activities.

The full list of council members includes:

Professor Chidi Odinkalu (Pro-Chancellor/Chairman)

Chief (Mrs) Ifeoma Ekwueme
Amb. Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu
Chief Christopher Ndubuisi
HRH Oranu Chris Chidume

This diverse and distinguished team is tasked with steering COOU towards greater heights, ensuring that the institution not only meets but exceeds educational and developmental benchmarks.
