Cavista Holdings, a leading conglomerate in Nigeria, has partnered with the University of Texas at Dallas to establish a liaison office in Lagos, Nigeria. This initiative aims to support African students aspiring to study abroad by streamlining the admission process and providing access to quality education.
“I am thrilled about the opportunities this new office will create for millions of young people in Nigeria and across Africa who are seeking quality education,” said Olajide. “The office will help build strong relationships, attract top students, and ensure that their time at UTD is enriched with friendships and experiences that will benefit them throughout their lives.”
In his speech, the UTD President, Richard Benson expressed deep gratitude to everyone involved in making the partnership possible, particularly John Olajide. “To say that we are proud of our distinguished alumnus is an understatement. John’s leadership has built successful businesses, contributed to the vitality of education, and guided us all into reaching for the stars,” Benson said.
Benson emphasized UTD’s strong ties to industry and applied research, a foundational aspect of the university since its creation in the 1960s. “It would be our greatest honor to continue writing the exciting story of UT Dallas with the bright men and women of Africa,” Benson concluded.
