Lalong said "since assuming office over one year ago, Prof. Galadima has injected a fresh impetus in the management of the nation's apex policy and strategic institution by introducing new concepts that made research seamless even under the current COVID-19 pandemic. He also did a lot to improve the physical infrastructure of the institution while strengthening the academic experience for all course participants. He will be greatly missed".
