THE Bishop of Asaba Diocese of the Anglican Communion, Rt. Rev. J. N. Mogekwu, has admonished academic staff of Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku, to work in the light of God and teach with dignity, morality and fear of God.

The cleric stated this during the donation of textbooks worth thousands of naira by Professor Mathias Mogekwu, a professor of mass communication in the Department of Journalism, University College Ithaca, New York, United States.

Mogekwu said he donated the books because of his desire to contribute to the development of the polytechnic through academic excellence. The donation is the second since the inception of the polytechnic.

Speaking, HOD, Mass Communication Department, who also doubled as the Acting Dean, School of Business, Mr. Brikins Ogbemi, commended the kind gesture of Mogekwu, saying with the donation, the donor has demonstrated his genuine commitment to the growth and development of the institution.

Earlier in her opening remarks, the Rector of the Polytechnic, Dr. Edna Mogekwu, described the donor as a thorough scholar, author and researcher committed to his field of study and charity works.
She said Mogekwu had fulfilled his promise of equipping the polytechnic library with modern books and journals. She promised the books would be put to gainful use.
