EDITORIAL: The Grand Finale—A Legacy Blueprint for Uniport's 36th Convocation. As the University of Port Harcourt formally inaugurates the 36th Convocation Ceremony Committee, the atmosphere across the University carries a unique weight. This is not just another academic ritual; it is a milestone moment for the institution. Most significantly, it marks the final Convocation presided over by Vice Chancellor Professor Owunari Abraham Georgewill before the conclusion of his tenure. This reality transforms the upcoming May ceremony (May 18-23, 2026) into a "Grand Finale"—a final opportunity to solidify a legacy of excellence and set a gold standard for the future. A leader’s final outing should be defined by precision. The 36th Committee, chaired by the Deputy Vice Chancellor (Academic), Professor Rosemary Ogu, has these vital tasks: 1. Proper traffic management: People shouldn't be caught up in traffic gridlock on that day. Traffic should flow smoothly. 2. Convocation Booklet: The permanent record of a student’s hard work must not be a rare commodity. The committee should ensure every graduate have a copy of the brochure as access to this document is a commitment to the students' legacy and a reflection of the administration's respect for its stakeholders. 3. Spotlighting the Stars: The conferment of degrees is the headline, but the stories of our Best Graduating Students are the soul of the event. We call for a deliberate "Spotlight Series"—pre-event features that tell the stories of those who conquered the rigors of lecture halls. 4. Ceremonial Dinner: This celebration of brilliance should culminate at the Vice Chancellor’s Dinner for First Class graduates. As Professor Georgewill prepares to hand over the baton, there is no greater legacy than ensuring Uniport's finest minds are integrated into the university’s future. Offering academic paths and job opportunities to these graduates isn't just a reward; it’s a strategic investment in the "Unique UniPort" of tomorrow. 5. A Digital Frontier: In 2026, a convocation happens twice; once in the Arena and once on the screen. The synergy between the committee and the University’s official social media handles must be absolute. With this being the Vice Chancellor's valedictory convocation, the digital footprint must be impeccable; utilizing real-time updates and high-quality streaming to allow alumni and families worldwide to witness the closing chapter of this administration. 6. Timely presentation of prizes: Awardees should get their prizes as quickly as possible. There shouldn't be unnecessary delays as experienced in the past. Also those outstanding prizes from previous Convocations should be given to the awardees, it's over 2 years. The Vice Chancellor has tasked the committee with ensuring a "seamless and memorable" ceremony. To achieve this, the University must be open to innovative collaboration. Whether through student-led media initiatives or logistical partnerships to enhance coverage and coordination, the goal is singular: To make the 36th Convocation the most organized, prestigious, and memorable event in recent history. To the Class of 2026, you are the final cohort of this era. To the Committee, you are the architects of a legacy. Let us make this Convocation one that honors the past and inspires the future. PS Dear Ma, Unique Stoary is open to being an unofficial part of the planning process especially in the aspect of Media.

Prof. Udeme Owunari Georgewill Delivers Insightful Lecture on Drug Repurposing at Uniport’s 205th Inaugural Lecture Series. The 205th Inaugural Lecture Series of the University of Port Harcourt featured an intellectually stimulating presentation by Prof. Udeme Owunari Georgewill, who spoke extensively on drug repurposing for the treatment of diseases. In her lecture, Prof. Georgewill emphasized that drug repurposing significantly reduces development timelines and financial risks associated with conventional drug discovery. She described the concept as “old wine in new wineskins,” noting that re-evaluating existing drugs for new therapeutic uses encourages evidence-based, equitable, and transformative innovation. According to her, old drugs previously used for known illnesses can be re-examined and applied to treat other diseases, opening new frontiers in medical research. She further stated that effective drug repurposing will require new frameworks, new combinations, new applications, and renewed policy commitments. We congratulate Prof. Udeme Owunari Georgewill, the 205th Inaugural Lecturer, for a five-star performance and a truly impactful scholarly contribution. Prof. Udeme Owunari Georgewill is a Professor of Pharmacology(Chemotherapy), the wife of the Uniport Vice Chancellor, Prof. Owunari Georgewill and also the President of the University of Port Harcourt Women Association (UPWA). _____________________________________________ We have a WhatsApp channel.

FIVE WAYS TO OVERCOME STRESS THIS SEMESTER AS A STUDENT This semester doesn’t have to drain you emotionally or mentally. Stress is one of the silent reasons many students lose focus, motivation, and grades. The good news? It can be managed both intentionally and wisely. Here are 5 practical ways to overcome stress this semester 👇 See how to apply them and protect your peace while chasing excellence. 📌 Plan your week before stress plans you: When you don’t plan, everything feels urgent. A simple weekly timetable reduces pressure and gives your brain peace. Be a student that plan and not always scattered. Learn to coordinate your life. 📌Study daily, not desperately: Stress increases when you postpone reading. Small, consistent study sessions beat last-minute cramming every time. It seems you can't do it but, start small and you will be glad you did. 📌Protect your sleep and rest: You can’t think clearly on exhaustion. Adequate sleep is not laziness; it’s academic strategy. 📌Set boundaries with people and distractions: Not every call, outing, or conversation deserves your time this semester. Say no to protect your focus. Finally, 📌Talk it out and pray it out: Yesss! Don’t bottle everything in. Share with a trusted person, journal your thoughts, and commit your worries to God. By Ogbonna Amarachi Chidera Student development coach •• Tag/Mention Unique Stoary and we will get to feature your story. _____________________________________________ We have a WhatsApp channel.
