Speaking on the significance of Dr. Ndifon’s election, Dr. Emmanuel Inyang, Coordinator of ACCE Cross River State, described it as a victory for academic progress and institutional development. He expressed confidence that Dr. Ndifon will bring his wealth of experience and expertise to enhance the growth of UNICROSS and foster a strong, cooperative relationship between the university and its Visitor, the Governor of Cross River State.

"We are extremely proud of Dr. Ndifon and firmly believe that his leadership will contribute meaningfully to the development of UNICROSS. His track record speaks volumes, and we are confident he will make a significant impact in his new role," Dr. Inyang stated.
