For the first time, the Rector,
Prof.Godwin Onu has officially met with the newly inaugurated Organs of
Students’ Union Government of Federal Polytechnic Oko after their swear-in ceremony.
Coordinated by the outgone S.U.G President, Miss Beatrice Erewa and led by
Nwanya JohnBosco (S.U.G President inaugurated), the new Students’ Union Leaders
appeared pleasantly smart. In fact, it was a show of anti-solipsism as the
Rector warmly opened his fatherly arms for all and congratulated them in his
usual friendly smile. He thanked them for their comportment, conduct and
harmonization before, during and after the electioneering process which was
adjudged the best in the history of Federal Polytechnics in Nigeria.
As an IT-Driven master, the
Rector implored them to inculcate the idea of Social Media Campaign (SMC),
which was a major campaign strategy he introduced to the contestants during
their campaign period, to younger students who will next be gunning for one S.U.G
position or another. Sighting that the
campus was neat and non-defaced, he promised to remain students friendly but
charged them with conviction to join his course of making the Polytechnic the
best not only in Nigeria but in international community.
On the fight against Campus
corruption, the Digital Rector enjoined the three Organs of the Union to expose
any sort of Mal-exercise going on in the Campus. He charged them vehemently to
report any case of extortion, harassment and intimidation from Lecturers. He
however warned them to be truthful in their reports as to avoid punishing an Innocent
Lecturer.
On Cultism, the Rector said that
the war has been won by his Administration. He mandated the members of the
S.U.G to help him unveil the few miscreants who still clandestinely participate
in Cult activities. The Rector harped
that on no account should Students fight on Campus no matter the enormity of
the cause. He said that any person caught with evidence automatically becomes a
graduate without Certificate.
In response, the S.U.G President,
Nwanya JohnBosco applauded the Rector for finding it worthy to invite the Union
leaders for a good treat and recognition. He said he never knew that the Rector
was as friendly as he had just showcased. He promised on behalf of his members
to assist the Rector with anything that would move the Campus forward. Moreover,
the S.U.G president said that most of them who did OND programs in the school
can attest to the high level of perfect Change and monumental restructuring
which is on-going in the Campus; and as such, it would be self-detrimental not to
support in full, such achiever. In his words “Even the blind can tip-toe on our
tarred environment and confirm your handwork. Even the deaf would feel the
ambience of the beauty of our Campus at present. So you have done noble and we
shall all support you to completion”.
In conclusion, the Vice
President, Akaeme Chidimma promising to use her feminine strength to support
the Management and encourage other students to be of good behaviour, gave a
touchy Vote of thanks which connoted the unparalleled prowess of the Rector.
