Welcome to the American Polytechnic of Nigeria (APN), a visionary institution committed to redefining the future of technical and professional education in Africa.
It is a distinct privilege to serve as the Deputy Rector of this trailblazing polytechnic. In this capacity, I am deeply committed to supporting the Rector’s leadership and contributing to the academic and operational excellence that define our institution. Together, we are shaping an educational environment that is globally competitive and rooted in the core values of relevance, innovation, discipline, and excellence.
In collaboration with our esteemed partner, Lewis University, USA, we deliver a unique academic experience that blends the rigour of American-style education with contextual relevance to the Nigerian and African landscape. Through this partnership, our students and staff gain access to global perspectives, cutting-edge tools, and industry-aligned competencies which are essential for today’s knowledge-driven world.
At the core of our academic philosophy is a strong commitment to quality and impact. We ensure that all programs strictly comply with the accreditation benchmarks of the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), while intentionally designing curricula and research agendas that tackle real-world societal challenges. By merging academic integrity with innovation, we produce graduates who are not only career-ready but also change-makers in their communities.
Our Commitment to Students and Staff
At APN, student success is our highest priority. Every policy and program we implement is designed to equip our students with the intellectual agility, technical proficiency, and ethical grounding needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving global economy. Through modern learning environments, hands-on training, and strong industry linkages, our graduates leave with more than a qualification — they graduate with purpose and readiness to lead.
To our exceptional and prospective staff/faculty, APN offers an enriching platform for growth and impact. We are committed to creating a workplace culture that values innovation, integrity, collaboration, and inclusiveness. With access to research grants, academic development programs, and international exposure, our team is empowered to drive meaningful academic transformation.
Looking Ahead
As we look to the future, the American Polytechnic of Nigeria is poised to set new standards in innovation-driven education. Guided by vision, integrity, and a relentless commitment to excellence, we invite students, parents, partners, and prospective faculty members to be part of this transformative journey.
Together, we are not just building a polytechnic; we are building a legacy of knowledge, character, and global citizenship.
