Governor Ibik-
unleAmosun publicly announced automatic employment to fifteen graduating  students from Tai Solarin University of Education, TASUED, Ijagun, Ogun State.
Speaking at the combined convocation ceremonies of the institution, where close to 11, 000  students were graduated on Friday, the governor offered automatic employment to the  2012/2013 Best Overall Graduating Student, Mr. AdenijiKayode and 14 others who excelled  with first class honours.
Amosun, who also reiterated that TASUED has come to stay, assured that affordable and qualitative education remains the focal point of his administration.
He noted that the ceremony was another stamp of accomplishment and unbridled  qualitative education service delivery since the establishment of the institution.
“It gladdens my heart to note that you have relentlessly worked hard to sustain yourself in the midst of great number of higher institutions in Ogun state. TASUED has proven it is a great citadel of learning where academic excellence and good moral training are impacted on the students.
“It is gratifying to note that in less than 10 years of being a full-fledged university, Tai Solarin  University of Education has become one of Nigeria’s best universities, consistently among  universities at the top of the Nigerian University League. Also, it has continued to be a  pacesetter and trailblazer in the provision of qualified teaching corps.
“This institution has not disappointed in its mandate of producing successful graduates that  have carved a niche for themselves in their different endeavours and continued to  contribute their quota to the socio-economic development of our great nation,” Amosun  posited.
The governor charged the graduates not to see their certificates as mere meal ticket, but  rather develop their intellect and horizon as well as equip themselves with the knowledge  and skills to appropriate abundant opportunities that abound in the nation.
While reinstating his administration’s commitment to making education more affordable, the  governor disclosed that, “our administration reduced school fees in all the ten state-owned  higher institutions of learning by 60 per cent in some cases. The goal of this policy is to  make education more affordable to more people and create a relief for all parents.”
Vice Chancellor of the University, Prof. (Mrs) Oluyemi  Obilade  noted that the institution is the first  university of education in Nigeria, second in Africa and elg in the world. She  said it has been established on solid principles and platform which characterized the person  of Tai Solarin, the late renowned educationist, who the school is named after.
