Today, Friday, 1 May 2026, we are pleased to announce that *Rev. Dr. Jonathan A. Abass* has assumed office as the 3rd substantive University Chaplain of our great institution.

Jonathan Abass, who joins us from the Baptist Theological Seminary, Kawo, Kaduna, is a seasoned teacher, devoted preacher, and gifted music minister, whose years of faithful and impactful service in the vineyard of Christ have touched lives and strengthened the body of believers.

His depth in the Word, passion for discipleship, and commitment to raising godly people position him uniquely for this sacred responsibility within our university community.

As he begins this new assignment, we pray that the hand of the Lord will be mightily evident in Bowen through his ministry. May lives be transformed, hearts drawn closer to God, and may many come into a deeper knowledge of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. We pray that God will grant him wisdom, strength, and grace for the task ahead, and that his ministry will flourish abundantly, in Jesus' name.

We also commit his family into God’s hands, that in their time in Bowen, they'll experience peace, & joy, and move from grace to greater grace, in Jesus’ name.

Congratulations and welcome to Bowen University, Rev. Dr. Abass👏🏾🎉🎉
