The Vice-Chancellor of Al-Hikmah University, Prof. Noah Yusuf has urged all tertiary institutions in the country to focus more on practical skills acquisition.

Prof. Yusuf stated this in a programme titled “Meet the Press” on Monday, July 12, 2021 to mark his one year anniversary in office.

The Vice-Chancellor revealed that the proliferation of universities in Nigeria is a necessary development, most especially, as a pragmatic response to upsurge in the number of prospective candidates yearning for university education, which is over stretching the capacity of the existing universities in Nigeria. He added that over 1.2 million candidates sat for the 2021 University Matriculation Examination (UTME) but the existing admission placement on average is less than 450,000. To him, private universities should be complementary to the public ones to make university education accessible to teeming Nigerian youths that are desirous of quality education.

The Vice-Chancellor reiterated that the Federal Government needs to provide financial and logistic support to private universities. He, however, said that the present administration of Al-Hikmah University has been able to accomplish some projects within the past one year without support from the government. According to him, some of these are: flowering project, establishment of income generation ventures, information technology-driven administration, academic programmes accreditation, community outreach, inauguration of Al-Hikmah University Special Road Marshal Unit, establishment of Al-Hikmah online radio, sustenance and upgrading of existing facilities, hostel development, staff welfare/development, regular payment of staff salaries and allowances, students welfare packages, innovative programmes like expansion of academic programmes, facilitating commencement of inaugural lecture deliveries and publication of university-wide journal.

The Registrar, Dr. Rasheedat Modupe Oladimeji, in her closing remarks congratulated the Vice-Chancellor on the recorded achievement and assured him of the management's support.

 The Registrar further expressed her appreciation to the entire management team of the University for their Contributions to the success recorded by the administration of the current Vice- Chancellor in the last one year.

A musical instrument is an instrument created or adapted to make musical sounds. In principle, any object that produces sound can be a musical instrument—it is through purpose that the object becomes a musical instrument. The history of musical instruments dates to the beginnings of human culture. Early musical instruments may have been used for ritual, such as a trumpet to signal success on the hunt, or a drum in a religious ceremony. Cultures eventually developed composition and performance of melodies for entertainment. Musical instruments evolved in step with changing applications. The date and origin of the first device considered a musical instrument is disputed. The oldest object that some scholars refer to as a musical instrument, a simple flute , dates back as far as 67,000 years. Some consensus dates early flutes to about 37,000 years ago. However, most historians believe that determining a specific time of musical instrument invention is impossible due to the su
