"Apart from the award to the Pro Chancellor, we are also presenting a certificate of credence to Greenfield University as the Fastest Growing Private Tertiary Instituition in Nigeria," he said.


Earlier in the introductory remarks, Asst Secretary General NAPS, 

Comrade Mubarak Abdulganiyu   said that no fewer than 21.8m membership strength NAPS are committed to recognizing individuals and institutions that contribute positively to nation building.



"We deem it fit to say Engineer Nwakacha  is a Nigerian that does not discriminate, owing to the fact that his staff comprise of various ethnic group and religions.


"One other reason we decided to honour you today is for your open door policy.


"We believe products of these instituition will be exceptional as they graduate into the labour market.


"These are the kind of people that the government should be giving  award for his patriotic zeal, not those that have contributed little or nothing to Nigeria's unity and development," he said.


Speaking further, he said that it is heart warming to note that the relationship of Engineer Nwakacha  with the host community is also highly commendable.



"We are impressed that in the university's Senate Building, the portrait of the Emir of Zazzau is standing tall. If it is others, you would see them promoting regional and religious bigotry, but this is one Nigerian that stands out," he said.

Pro Chancellor Greenfield University, Engineer Simon Nwakacha (Onwa of Umueri) in his response, said that he is excited to know they chose him as worthy of the award.
