The University of Lagos, Akoka, has become the first university in Nigeria to be granted a licence to operate a television station, an official has said.

Ralph Akinfeleye, a professor and Chairman of Unilag Radio and TV, stated this in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES on Friday.

The don confirmed that the National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, granted the TV licence to the institution on Thursday, November 9.

He therefore invited members of the university community to the commissioning of the TV scheduled to hold on Saturday, November 11 at the Department of Mass Communication of the university.

Also in the press statement, the Vice Chancellor of the institution, Rahman Bello, on behalf of the university management, congratulated members of staff, students and the entire university community on the milestone.

The Mass Communication department of Unilag also pioneered the first campus radio station in Nigeria.

Makes studying mass communication more reasonable/interesting now, unlike in other schools where you are taught theories only.

Well said jare and some fools will be coming here to condemn UNILAG for its social vibes also, not knowing that a university environment should be a subset of a country where you have the political activist( SOWORE, O'LAW, FEMI), social activist(Denrele,BobRisky,Funke Akindele etc), bloggers(linda Ikeji), public speakers(Gurero,Camara), scholars(Ayodele), politicians(Ambode,Osinbajo), writers(Dele Momodu) amongst others, Though I respect University of Ibadan but at that No university in the country can be match with the school of first choice and the Nation's pride because we're on different track.

SEE HATERS EVERYWHERE...INSTEAD OF THEM TO APPRECIATE GOOD THINGS YOU START HEARING STATEMENT LIKE... SHOULD I FRY BEANS, SHOULD WE FRY MOI MOI... WELL THATS AFRICAN MENTALITY FOR YOU.

GREAT AKOKITE!!!
