Responding to the approval, the Vice Chancellor, Professor Charity Aremu, described the accreditation as a testament to the university's commitment to maintaining quality academic standards, investing in teaching facilities, and building a learning environment that prepares competent healthcare professionals.

She affirmed the university's commitment to driving excellence in quality academic delivery and expressed appreciation to the National Universities Commission for the confidence reposed in the institution.
