🎓 Living Legends Series

Featuring: Dr. Emmanuel Ejomafuvwe Akpoveta

Chief Lecturer. Dean of ICT. Academic Icon. AKA “Are You in MassCom?”

Prince Agbedeyi O. D. Writes for Egbema Egberi Media International from Asaba

At Delta State Polytechnic, Ogwashi-Uku, there’s a man whose name rings louder than the school bell — and whose academic presence is felt in every corner of the campus. We present to you the one and only Dr. Emmanuel Ejomafuvwe Akpoveta — a scholar so legendary, even the air around the Mass Communication department whispers his name.

Currently serving as the Dean of the School of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Dr. Akpoveta isn’t just leading — he’s redefining what it means to be a 21st-century academic leader. From curriculum development to strategic planning, he's the brain behind the brainy.

But let’s not stop there. He’s a Chief Lecturer, the highest academic rank in the polytechnic system — meaning he’s not just seasoned; he’s the whole stew. Over the years, he has served as Head of Department, Deputy Director, and now Academic Board Representative in Council, where his voice carries both wisdom and weight (and maybe just a little dramatic pause for effect).

Oh, and in case you didn’t catch the campus phrase that’s practically a rite of passage:

"Are you in MassCom?"

Yes, that’s him — the man behind the myth, the professor behind the punchline. It’s not just a question; it’s a movement. A whole mood.

When he’s not dishing out knowledge or fighting for educational reforms (polytechnic staff say “thank you!”), he’s busy grooming the next generation of communicators — both at DSPG and as a facilitator at the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN). Distance is no barrier when you're a man of influence.

His work goes beyond teaching. He’s a vocal advocate for polytechnic education, challenging systems that undervalue non-university lecturers and championing fairness in academia. He’s not just an educator; he’s a reformer, a strategist, a mentor — and one man academic task force.

Dr. Akpoveta reminds us that legends aren’t just in history books — some are still taking attendance and marking scripts!

🌟 From all of us at Egbema Egberi Media International, we proudly honor Dr. Emmanuel Akpoveta in our Living Legends Series — a scholar of excellence, a leader of integrity, and an icon with a catchphrase!
