President of the American University of Nigeria (AUN), Dr. DeWayne Frazier, on Friday, August 22, 2025, revisited the Nasarawo Lamido Zubairu community in Yola South, Adamawa State, to fulfill a promise he made to flood victims during his first visit.
Dr. Frazier had earlier visited the community on August 2 to commiserate with residents over the loss of lives and property, where he pledged support. On his return, he donated food items to the community.
“This is a small token gift of food and a reminder that we at AUN have not forgotten. We will find more ways to help rebuild our community because all the people there deserve the support,” said President Frazier.
He added that the gesture symbolized AUN’s bond with its host community: “Even when it is natural to get going after tragedy strikes, it is humane to empathize with those who are at the center of the tragedy and feel it most. Hence this little gift, to prove AUN never forgets the people of its host community.”
The Counselor representing Bole-Yolde pate Ward, Hon. Suleiman Musa, expressed deep gratitude to Dr. Frazier and the AUN community, acknowledging the university’s consistent positive impact on Yola and its surrounding communities.
