RECENT HAPPENINGS ON CAMPUS

Few weeks ago the authority in a bid to check the activities of Motorcycles on campus and to improve security began the collection of levies from Motorcycle owners which was intended for the production of means of identification for the Motorcycle owners as there have been cases of stolen bikes on campus but when it started affecting the average Nigerian student and there was outcry against it, I quickly contacted the DSS officials to help talk to the administration to rescind such policy and subsequently led members of the executive and the Senate to the Security Office where I registered my displeasure, and he further assured that it was being done in good faith and in the interest of the students. Nevertheless, in recognition of the financial implications to the average student we asked it be stopped immediately and our request was granted. It has ever since been stopped.

On this note I want to reaffirm emphatically and with every sense of dedication to service that the SUG UNN 2017/2018 led by myself Comrade Chimezie Fortunatus, shall continue to be a beacon of hope to the students.

I wish to thank my ever vibrant Excos, articulate House members, ever wise members of the Senate, noble counsels of the Judiciary and ever working Hall Governors for the concerted efforts at representation. And to everyone that has continued to pray and support this administration, may God's grace see us through.

We appreciate the constructive criticisms from well meaning lions and lionesses; it has continued to keep us awake until victory is achieved.

Yours in the Struggle

Comrade Chimezie Fortunatus, GCLR
