Our mission is to develop and strengthen ties between our alumni and the parent Alumni in Nigeria and within the alumnus in other branches/chapters in order to increase awareness, pride, participation, volunteer involvement, and philanthropic commitment to the University, by providing diverse tangible benefits including career services, networking opportunities, special events and lectures, and the opportunity to connect with and inspire students and graduates. We want to engage all alumni residing in the United Kingdom with networking, professional, career, material and emotional support, in order that each individual feels welcome and valued as a member of the UK Alumni community, while simultaneously trying to also be instrumental to the creation of a lifelong and worldwide community of alumni. For instance, when Alli left office in 1983, he was responsible for founding over 10 percent of all the schools in Nigeria at that time – built from scratch.
A forward-thinking consummate educator of no mean repute, he also founded three polytechnics and numerous other educational institutions. For instance, when Alli left office in 1983, he was responsible for founding over 10 percent of all the schools in Nigeria at that time – built from scratch.
Also, worthy of note is the fact that AAU (Ambrose Alli University) is the first non – federal university in Nigeria; because Professor Alli successfully took the federal government (under Shehu Shagari) to court to establish the right for other non – federal universities to be accredited and opened, hence all the state & private universities in Nigeria today
