Olaniyan stated that the history of the institution dates back decades, beginning as St. Andrew’s College of Education (SACOED), later becoming Oyo State College of Education (OYSCOED), Emmanuel Alayande College of Education (EACOED), and eventually Emmanuel Alayande University of Education (EAUED), Oyo.
According to him, “We are celebrating our 3rd Foundation Day following the establishment of the university with the mandate of nurturing great minds for the education sector and producing high-level manpower for society through effective teaching. We are also conducting a graduation ceremony for the graduates of the defunct Emmanuel Alayande College of Education between 2005 and 2025.”
The Vice-Chancellor further encouraged members of the university community, former NCE students, graduates, and the general public to grace the two significant events.
