Rhema University

In September 2014, the university graduated its first set of students, and in January 2015 it signed an Equity Investment Agreement with BAU Research and Development and joined its Network of Institutions.

[3][4][5] The history of the Rhema University can be traced back to 1987, when the president of the Living Word Ministries – Emmanuel Okorie, concerned by the falling standard of education in Nigeria, decided to address these problems with the setting up of nursery, primary and secondary schools in some states of Nigeria and Lome, Togo.

The university library houses multimedia learning and research resources including articles, textbooks, journals and published papers that are available in hard and soft copies.

[11] As part of its effort to foster learning, entrepreneurship and research in the agricultural field, Rhema University set up a farm focusing on crops, livestock and a poultry.

The university is currently operating from its take-off campus situated at #153/155 Aba-Owerri Road in the heart of business city of Aba in Abia State.

Apart from the acquisition of over 100 hectares of land for the university's permanent campus development, the Living Word Ministries in preparation for the eventual setting up of the university set up a hospital complex which is well equipped and which is also one of the very few hospitals in the Eastern states of Nigeria with a functional dialysis unit.
