BEING THE INAUGURAL TEXT DELIVERED BY COMR. LATEEF, SODIQ ADEWALE (PRUDENCE), THE SUG PRESIDENT OF OSUN STATE COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY, ESA OKE AT THE INAUGURATION CEREMONY HELD ON OCTOBER 31ST, 2023.

PROTOCOL

The Rector, Dr. S. A. O. Adegoke,

Deputy Rector,

Dean of Student Affairs,

Directors of Programmes,

All the Faculty Deans and Departmental HODs on the seat,

Chairman and Members of Independent Students Electoral Committee,

Immediate Past President and his Executive

Immediate Past Senate President and the Senators,

Fellow Just Inaugurated Executive,

Senate President and the SRC Members,

Distinguish Men of the Press,

Security Personnel,

And Good Looking Nigerian Students;

1. It remains such a great privilege to stand before you as the SUG President of this great Institution, OSCOTECH. Several activities precede this day, starting from the consultations down to the voting at the poll, it was such a privilege I cannot appreciate enough bestowed on me 

2. Today, being sworn in as the SUG President is marking the beginning of another atmosphere of administration and a journey through and to success.

3. While I appreciate everyone involved in the proceedings of this struggle so far, most especially the executive body, as earlier published in my appreciation immediately after the election, I am also charging you this day regarding the task ahead, it is a great responsibility mounting on our shoulders today, and the welfare of over 5,000 Nigerian Students lapse on us. It is therefore expected of us all, to be fair, and courteous, and to take the privileges bestowed on us as a responsibility.

4. Beyond the Oath of Office we all took today, lies the trust, belief, and faith of the thousands of students who gave us their mandates, we should not fail them, and we will not fail them.

5. As part of our electoral promises, this administration will be mounting on the diplomatic relationships sustained by past administrations, most especially the just concluded one led by Hon. Comr. Oyekanmi Bankole Isaac FEMCATH. We believe they have put their best interest in sustaining these partnerships and relationships with the School Management, Government Agencies, Community and Religious Leaders, Public Figures, Philanthropist, Past Leaders, Stakeholders, ALUMNI, student bodies, and many other external organizations, we will ensure to continue from where they have stopped and ensure continuity which in our belief will be to the best interest of the Nigerian Students.

6. In lieu of the above, We have noticed over time that the school management doesn’t normally involve the students union involved in decision making which in our thinking is causing great loopholes and gaps between the student body and the school management, and this always renders the student union irrelevant and incapable in the sight of the students we are representing. We hope a lasting solution will be effected to this with effect from now

7. Still fostering a relationship with the school management, we implore the rector to organize interactive sessions with the students at the very least twice every semester. This we believe will foster a more cordial relationship and also denote the Rector's acceptance by the Student community is inarguable.

8. As part of our efforts to foster relationships with our immediate community, we are considering holding a cultural program that will be in partnership with our immediate community, and therefore have in attendance the community leaders of Esa Oke and people in diaspora but within the frame of Osun State. This we see not only aids the nobility of the Institution, but also showcases our contribution to enhance the cultural wealth of our immediate community, and Osun State in extension.

9. Considering the economic state of our country at this crucial time, the impact of the naira crunch is still very much affecting the economic space, the depreciation of the Naira to the Dollar is daily increasing, and all this is affecting our students in one way or the other. It is on this note that we are writing the State Government through the School Management and also the School Management itself to consider a reduction of the Academic Fees payable for this Academic Year. While we are very much aware of the fact that the above factors are also affecting the activities of the Institution's finances, we implore the State Government to look keenly to investing more in the Educational sector and increase the remuneration dedicated to its finances.

10. As an institution vast in technological knowledge, it is our plead that the School Management will help dedicate more focus to practical knowledge and ensure there is a great increase therein. It has been reported over the past few years how there has been the unavailability of some key equipment for sustainable practical knowledge, the ineffectiveness of some machines in the laboratories, and keeping most of the lab apparatus from being used even during practical, we deeply hope this will change with time, so that our students may be rated better among their peers at the labor market which will, in turn, bring more credibility for the Institution.

11. We appreciate the School Management for their efforts so far concerning the WiFi at the ICT, however, it is saddening to state that most students are not enjoying these privileges enough, we can even say only a few students, not up to ten percentage of our students are even enjoying this at all. We, therefore plead with the School Management to install more WiFi for access around the school environment. In our recommendation, we implore that every department should have at least one installed for them while a conventional mega WiFi will be installed at the Senate Building for access to the students around. Other critical places we request WiFi installations are the SUG Building and Entrepreneurship Center.

12. We believe that the last two administrations emphasized the Issues of Entrepreneur Certificates. While we hope the school management is working towards ensuring this is carried out, we are using this medium to bring to your remembrance how important this proficiency and skill certificate is in the life of the students. We want to plead that the school management ensure this is actualized during this academic year, as we are tagging this as part of the keynote achievement this administration will be backing on while handing over the union administration to another person pilot.

13. To aid the academic activities on campus and reduce the stresses for both the students and our distinguished lecturers, we are recommending making the general courses online through e-courses. This might be done through the usage of pre-recorded classes using any online platform. With this, the students will be introduced to digital learning which is gradually taking over time.

14. We are using this medium to solicit Food Palliative from the School Management as the academic session continues, this is to aid the students who might be in dire need as this contributes to their well-being.

15. That being said, during the last administrative sessions, a lot of sentiments were raised due to the ineffective operation of the Health Care not being up to standard, which has led to the loss of lives of some of our students. In lieu of this, we are imploring the school management to increase their attention to the health clinic and make availability of stable health care on campus, which will at least serve as first aides for any students who may be facing any health challenges before being transferred to any alternative health care center.

16. In our quest to ensure the academic excellence of our students, this administration under my leadership will be working with different associations, organizations, as well as agencies to facilitate sponsorships, scholarships, and academic grants for our students, we hope the school management will aides us on the quest.

17. Concerning the above, most of the scholarship opportunities do request Academic Transcript or Results of the Students, due to the delays in releasing the semestrial results however, many opportunities have been lost for our students, we, therefore plead that the results of our students will be faster than ever before so that the students will be able to apply for any opportunities that might come in time. Also, we are requesting that the school beat down the prices for Academic transcripts for our students, most students applying for scholarships were requested to provide this, but the cost of requesting this transcript has been so enormous, that we therefore request a review of it.

18. Before I end my speech, in honor, respect, and remembrance of the Late Registrar who passed on to glory, I seek the indulgence of everyone on the seat to be on a standing ovation as a symbol of respect to his honor...... May he continue resting in perfect peace.

19. We are using this medium to affirm our commitment to the oath of office we have received, ensuring we delivered tentatively the mandate and trust bestowed on us, we will not fail you. 

20. Thank you for your keen attention and listening. To better administrative ahead, cheers.

IWO LOCAL GOVERNMENT SECRETARIAT WEARS NEW LOOKS; COALITION OF YOUTH VANGUARD AMBASSADORS APPRECIATE IWO LGA CHAIRMEN ON NOTEWORTHY ACHIEVEMENT IN FEW MONTHS OF APPOINTMENT

It is worthy of note that the governance we have long quested has now been set in place here in Osun State. The Iwo Local Government Secretariat (Central) which has been in a state of dejected following the post-effect of the ENDSARS Protest in 2020 has now worn a new look having been rehabilitated and refurnished by the present Chairmen of the local government. 

Meeting the Secretariat in such a damaged and dilapidated state which the past administration failed to do despite spending over two years after the incident that led to the damage.

The damage which was said to have affected the working conditions and the effective running of the Secretariat has now been rehabilitated and such, propelled new dimensions of administrative excellence in operations, this we see as commendable and we appreciate the effort put in place by the present Chairmen led by Hon. Moshood Adekunle Kabiru (IRORUN) who is the Chairman, Iwo Central Local Government.

In less than Three months of being appointed Caretaker Chairmen, the three Chairmen in the Local Government Areas have respectively been referenced with commendable activities, one of which is seeing to this rehabilitation.

Not limited to that, it was reported that the Chairman of Iwo East LCDA Olomowewe, Hon. Tiamiyu Kamaldeen Adesina also donated a wholesome amount of money to sponsor the just concluded FILSU Summer Lesson Program which we see not forthcoming in the past administration in the land, the new dimensions of governance experience in this past few months of your appointments is commendable, and an actualization of the campaign promises.

The Coalition of Youth Vanguard therefore appreciates the Chairmen for this commendable act and prays they not relent in ensuring safe governance is been experienced in the region.

I believe NANS is not just an association; it is an assembly of intellectuals, the voice of millions of Nigerian students who look up to us for leadership, advocacy, representation, support, and standing against every injustice and unfairness charged at them. 

My experience and antecedents in the realm of student activism have prepared me for this pivotal role. It is time to have strong, active, young, and vibrant students to lead the affairs of NANS. I have had the privilege of working closely with students' union presidents, who are NANS senators, in various capacities. I am confident in this hands-on involvement in the students' struggle and believe it has equipped me with the necessary insights and capacity to lead the Senate effectively in legislating the affairs of NANS. I am well aware of the challenges that Nigerian students face, and I am prepared and committed to addressing them head-on through sound legislation and proactive representation. 

If elected as President of the NANS Senate, it is my desire and preparedness to foster a harmonious working relationship with the executive leadership of NANS. I do not doubt that, together, we will collaborate to midwife initiatives that not only address the immediate needs of Nigerian students but also lay the foundation for a brighter and stronger representation for all. I firmly believe in that synergy, that a united and purpose-driven NANS leadership can bring about the active and effective representation that Nigerian students deserve. 

I humbly request your support, prayers, and trust as I embark on this journey to contest for the position of Senate President of NANS. Together, we can elevate NANS to greater heights of excellence and ensure that the voices of Nigerian students are not just heard but respected and also acted upon. I am ready and dedicated to this mission, and I am committed to working tirelessly for our great association and Nigerian students, at home and in the diaspora. 

Thank you and God bless!

OSUN STATE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM MANAGEMENT (RIDER'S PARK) ZONAL CHAIRMAN, ALH. COMR. MURI ADEBAYO SENDS A STRONG MESSAGE TO EX CHAIRMEN CAUSING DISTURBANCES

Our attention has been drawn to some sects who are parading themselves and causing diverse havoc and disturbances all in the name of making baseless protest across the town.

It is important to note that these self-acclaimed fellows are past leaders of some of our branches who are full of greed and wish everything always to be according to their conviction. The reports we have gathered so far of their leadership while serving are not worthy of reference, lacking contentment, and their behavior is distinguished with the behavior of troubles and havoc in the town.

The Osun State Government under the leadership of His Excellency, Gov. Isiaka Ademola Jackson Adeleke in his quest to ensure peace and a unified atmosphere is sustained across the state has merged all unions of Bike transporters to a unique recognized association which is "OSUN STATE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM MANAGEMENT" which Iwo, Ayedire, and Olaoluwa Zone is under the leadership of Alhaji (Comr.) Muri ADEBAYO who is the recognized Zonal Chairman coordinating the affairs of the bikemen across the three local government areas.

Recognized Uniform for all union member

The three men who were reportedly causing havoc and disturbing the peace of the town were Ex-Chairmen of Bebeto, Morose, and No-Case Units respectively. These three men who lacked basic rudiments of leadership nor had any glimpse of respect for themselves were going about telling people not to collect tickets, preaching sedition, and tearing the uniform ordered by the state government from off our members.

The leadership of the Union and its members will no longer be standing at bay allowing some unguarded fellow to cause a nuisance to tarnish the image of the association, We remain united and abided by the directive of the state government. Anyone found still constituting this public nuisance or attacking any of our members will be found guilty and charged with the law respectively.

Zonal Unity Meeting Held on Friday Aug 25, 2023.

It is important to state categorically that the only recognized Chairman in Iwo, Ayedire, and Olaoluwa is Alhaji (Comr.) Muri Adebayo is therefore by the virtues of this position responsible for selling the uniform for all the bikemen as made available at the Zonal Chairman Office, and also for collection of Tickets which is an Internal Revenue for the State Government.

Once again, we are undivided, and frown against any untoward attitudes to the directives of the state government or peaceful cohabitation of the People of Iwoland and activities of our members, any reoccurrences of which we will not be taking for granted.

BALOGUN JORJOR CONGRATULATES ALH. GBOYEGA OYETOLA ON HIS APPOINTMENT AS MINISTER FOR TRANSPORTATION
