Shepherd Catholic Church permanent site of the university.The minister described her husband as a God fearing person,
who supported the country, the church and contributed to the world of knowledge
before his demise.

University of Jos. He supervised over 25 PhD holders and has published over 200
articles; both national and international journalism,” she said.
The late Onwuliri rose through the ranks of the UNIJOS to
become acting vice-chancellor before withdrawing his services.
