Thomas Adewumi University: The dawn of a New Light
The Thomas Adewumi University is a private, not for profit university located in Oko Irese town near Omu-Aran town in Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State. The ethos of the University is excellence and the institution aim to become a major and key player in the delivery of university education of the highest quality in Nigeria as well as to produce graduates that would benefit themselves and be the human capital for the rapid and much needed socio-economic development of the Country. The attainment of this goal is a major challenge and a serious commitment, which Thomas Adewumi University expects to achieve through careful planning and adequate deployment of human and material resources.
The Proprietor of the Thomas Adewumi University (Decrown West Africa Company Limited) undertook to establish a university as a logical progression of its efforts in the provision of qualitative University education at the primary and secondary school levels. The vision of the Decrown West Africa Company Limited to develop the necessary infrastructure for education at the primary and secondary levels arose in 1991. That vision resulted in the establishment of Prime-Time Nursery and Primary School in 1996 (now Thomas Adewumi Nursery and Primary School) and Thomas Adewumi International College (TAICO) in 1997. These schools have made tremendous impact on the life of young Nigerians. In 2006, Thomas Adewumi International College was voted the 'Best Post Primary School in Nigeria'. Unfortunately, most of the graduates of Thomas Adewumi International College cannot continue in the excellent traditions of quality established at the schools as they seek to pursue higher education. They are assimilated in the existing national system, and those who can afford it migrate to other Countries. In addition to the issues associated with quality, the Proprietor of the Thomas Adewumi University is aware of the frustration being encountered by secondary school graduates in accessing University education. These twin factors, coupled with the vision to raise future leaders for Nigeria and mankind in general, have informed the decision of Decrown West Africa Company Limited to crown its achievements in the provision of education with the establishment of Thomas Adewumi University.
