This moment marks not only a milestone in his distinguished career but also a new era for the entire MSU community. It is a time filled with renewed purpose, hope, and transformation.

President Tago is a man of deep principle, unwavering dedication, and visionary leadership.

His years of service as Minister of Transportation and Communications in BARMM, Deputy Speaker of the Bangsamoro Parliament, and Commissioner of the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos are a testament to a life committed to people, progress, and peace. His journey reminds us that true leadership begins with service, and that excellence is rooted in humility, wisdom, and a relentless pursuit of the common good.

As he takes the helm of the MSU System for the next six years, MSU at Naawan stands in full support. We are eager to walk beside him in shaping a future where the University becomes not just a center of learning, but a light of transformation for Mindanao and beyond. We believe that under his guidance, MSU will continue to rise as a stronghold of knowledge, unity, and innovation. The University is ready to face the challenges of our times with courage and compassion.

Congratulations, President Tago. We are honored to be part of this journey with you.

Together, let us move forward with 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, and 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗦𝗨.
