Is it proper for an inaugural lecture to last roughly 25mins, why acknowledgement at the end of the lecture lasted more than 1hour. I need knowlegeable Nairalanders to educate me on what makes an inaugural lecture unique from every other kinds of lecture. Reason being that the presenter only focused on summarizing findings of his previous research efforts precisely from 2010 to date. What about earlier studies preceeding that date by same author, since his profile states that he joined the University of Benin as an Assistant Lecturer in 1999. Although Professor Francis E.U. Osagiede of Mathematics Dept of UNIBEN presentation on "A SOCIETY IN CRITICAL NEEDS: MATHEMATICS THE PANACEA" on 5th May, 2016, was quite lively and entertaining, it however falls below expectations in quality and content. THIS IS MINE HONEST AND CANDID CONCLUSION. For Nairalanders that were at fully at the packed UNIBEN auditorium yesterday, what is your take on his delivery in all ramification?
