The vibrant academic atmosphere of Edwin Clark University (ECU), Kiagbodo, Delta State, was filled with celebration and achievement yesterday as the institution held its Joint 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Convocation Ceremony held in the University on the 29th November, 2025. The event brought together graduates, families, distinguished guests, and members of the academic community in a grand celebration of excellence.
Among the notable graduates honoured at the ceremony was Chief Inko Brightstar, fondly known as General Whoknows Tomorrow, a distinguished graduate of Political Science from the Faculty of Humanities, Social and Management Sciences. His remarkable journey and heartfelt reflections added depth and inspiration to the day’s proceedings.
In a statement filled with gratitude and hope, Chief Brightstar expressed profound appreciation to God, the University’s founder, his sponsors, and all who contributed to his success. His words read:
“I return all glory and gratitude to God Almighty for making this day a reality in my life. This milestone is one achieved through determination, hard work, and passion.
I sincerely appreciate the Founder and Management of Edwin Clark University for their unwavering commitment to youth empowerment, education, and capital development in the Niger Delta and Nigeria at large. The University continues to set a standard of excellence that inspires us all.
“Secondly, I want to express my deep and sincere gratitude to my sponsors, the Presidential Amnesty Programme. Your commitment to empowering young people like me in the once neglected oil rich Niger Delta region has given me the platform to pursue my education, overcome challenges, and turn my dreams into meaningful achievements.”
“And to my super mother, my first supporter and my greatest inspiration — thank you deeply for believing in me even when the world doubted us. You stood by me with prayers, encouragement, and a heart full of hope. Today, God has truly put to shame those who mocked you and said that nothing good would come from your son. Your sacrifices, your sleepless nights, your tears, and your unwavering faith have not been in vain. Nua, Mummy. This victory is yours as much as it is mine.
Today’s achievement is proof that nothing is impossible when hard work and passion are truly prioritised. I deeply thank everyone who, in one way or another, contributed to the realisation of this dream. May God bless you all and grant the desires of your heart.”
The joint convocation ceremony further underscores Edwin Clark University’s dedication to raising a new generation of leaders equipped with the knowledge, skills, and character needed for national and global impact. The atmosphere was filled with joy, pride, and a strong sense of accomplishment as graduates stepped into a new chapter of their lives.
