PUMS is ranked 1st in programs with full accreditation by the NUC and also ranked 1st in Nigeria in female index enrollment among the entire universities in the country.

The Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission (NUC) – Prof. Abubakar A. Rasheed, mni, MFR delivered the convocation lecture on a topic: Higher Education, Private Universities and National Development. The guest lecturer briefly reflected on the evolution of higher education in Nigeria and some of the broader issues surrounding the establishment and roles of Private Universities in the National Development Project.

He highlighted the importance of Private Universities which includes encouraging healthy rivalry with public universities, meeting the local demands for human capital development, 

increasing the number of employable job seekers, catalyzing development in the host communities, reducing brain-drain in the country and instilling discipline and moral rectitude in the nation’s youths. He outlined key uniqueness of PAMO University of Medical Sciences and that His Excellency, Dr Peter Odili is clearly building a university that will bloom in an environment that fosters competitiveness, creativity and responsible leadership. 

“PAMO has developed faster and stronger and regarded by the NUC as the 1st Private Medical University in Nigeria” he said. He further mentioned that PAMO University of Medical Sciences is ranked 35th university out of the 200 universities in Nigeria and ranked 19th best private universities in this country out of 100. 

PUMS is ranked 1st in programs with full accreditation by the NUC and also ranked 1st in Nigeria in female index enrollment among the entire universities in the country.

He concluded by congratulating the principal actors of this success story – The Chancellor and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, His Excellency, Gen. Abdulsalami A. Abubakar; The Lion of the South-South – His Excellency, The Executive Governor of Rives State, Chief Barr. Nyesom Wike; and the father and founder of PAMO University of Medical Sciences and Chairman of the Council, His Excellency, Sir Dr. Peter Odili; Her Excellency and Her Lordship, Justice Marry Odili – The pillar of support behind His Excellency Dr. Peter Odili
