Like they always say, ‘everything is Bigger and Better in Texas!’. This reunion is shaping up to be as big as Texas’ iconic reputation.
In a statement by Bunmi Oladunjoye, President of FUTA North America Alumni and Ubong Assam Edohoukwa, Chief Host of Reunion Dallas 2022, the duo affirmed that “the FUTA North America alumni organization has made significant contributions to the development of the University, including providing food palliatives to support over 1,000 individuals and families during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020 and the donation of a N20,000,000 FUTANA Innovation Laboratory to the University in February 2022”.
The North American Alumni group strongly supports the university in Nigeria. This celebration is befitting for all members.
