Earlier, a piano instrumental was played by Christine Tsela, BA 2nd Semester, English Honours while Kvulo Lorin, Director, Tetso College, presented a brief overview on the conceptualization and materialization of the building in his commencement speech.
Addressing the dignitaries and student congregation, Rev. Dr. Zelhou Keyho remembered the late founder Dr. P.S. Lorin and the humble beginnings of the college, taking his life as an example of God’s faithfulness. As a man of service who persevered, Dr. P.S. Lorin embodied the idea that our Christian faith demands deeds and not just words, and that we have to take "risks in life to achieve something," he added. Continuing his speech, he exhorted the students that we are made for a purpose and to fulfill a purpose given by God. He continued saying "We are beautiful in our own way, and that we are brought here by the will of God".
The College Anthem – Strive For Excellence – was also launched during the programme in a special performance by Tetso Choir with the composer Nise Meruno, acclaimed pianist and Yamaha artist.
The 450+ seater multipurpose auditorium complete with state of the art SMD Full Color Concert Stage LED Screen Panel, audio, lighting, and air-conditioned seating will cater to large meetings, talk shows, presentations, and performances of the college.
