Federal University of Technology, Akure, FUTA newly inaugurated student leaders have been advised by the Vice-Chancellor to be servant leaders in their comportment and service delivery.
The newly inaugurated leaders of the Students Union Executive of the Federal University of Technology Akure, FUTA, have been advised to be servant leaders in their comportment and service delivery. The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Adebiyi Daramola and Dean, Students’ Affairs, Dr. Kayode Alese gave this counsel at the swearing in ceremony recently held for the new leaders. In his address at the occasion, Professor Daramola who was represented by the Deputy Vice Chancellor Development, Professor Tolulope Akinbogun admonished them to see leadership as a process by which a person influences others to accomplish set objectives and direct an organization in a way that makes it cohesive and coherent. “The underlying principles here are service, character and teamwork. Of greater importance is your character and the various choices of action or inaction you make while in office. Do not let your position get into your heads. You must be humble and approach every situation with maturity. The character you display during your tenure will show the kind of persons you are. Strive to serve others, even as you lead” he said.
Speaking on the challenges of leading, Daramola said “You must realize that your election as leaders of the Students’ Union will come with challenges. Note that your fellow students will not always agree with you, but you must work together with everyone in an open and cooperative manner to get things done”.
Professor Daramola also assured them of his administration’s readiness to impact leadership qualities in them. In view of this, he promised them local and international trainings as the culture of the University is. “We have consistently been sponsoring student leaders to attend leadership training programmes within and outside Nigeria for the past six years. I believe your administration will not be an exception. This is part of our resolve to take FUTA to a higher level of internationalization in scholarship and excellence” he said.
While speaking, Alese, popularly called Baba Ewe said “As leaders, the interest of the electorate must be of utmost priority. You must represent them and put aside personal gains. As leaders you must be up and doing. You must be responsible and exhibit leadership qualities at all times. You must be able to take decisions in the overall interest of not only the students’ populace but the entire University Community.”
Speaking further, Alese urged them to give the welfare of the electorate utmost priority and also abide by the rules guiding Studentship and Unionism. He also reminded them to avoid hooliganism because the University Management frowns at behaviour or actions that can project the University in bad light to the larger society.
Alese who also restated the open door policy of the Students Affairs Division, urged the students leaders to always intimate the University Management with their observations and challenges through his office. He promised prompt response to whatever issue raised. He also sternly warned them against students’ demonstration that can disrupt academic activities and elongate their stay on campus. “Avoid demonstration that can elongate your stay or even mar your future. Be responsible as future leaders. Management and staff are your parents, mentor, brothers and sisters. Relate freely with them because you have good lessons to learn from them” he added.
Alese also commended the University Management under the leadership of the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Adebiyi Daramola for prompt and positive response to students’ issues. Commending the Vice-Chancellor, Alese said “Sir, let me on behalf of the students appreciate your Management Team under your able leadership for your contributions to the welfare and wellbeing of the students. It takes a visionary leader like you to do this. The students appreciate all you have done for them and are ready to partner with the Management for the success of the Institution. You are a man of your words because you have said on several occasions that the welfare of students is a great priority to your administration. Students are ready to key into your vision to achieve greater giant strides.”
In a response, President, FUTA Students Union, Fowobaje Oluwaseun said ”We shall stand to uphold and uplift the integrity of the Students Union by rebranding FUTA and also ensure peace and progress in running the affairs of this great institution. He expressed the gratitude of the executive and the entire students to the University Management, particularly the fatherly role of Professor Daramola and Dr. Alese and promise to have a hitch free administration. “Our mission is to build a better Union, to bring back respect to the Students Union, to change the perspective of students about Student Unionism” he concluded.

NUC to Screen Certificates Obtained Abroad Before NYSC
NUC and the Federal Ministry of Education to screen degrees obtained by Nigerian students who studied abroad before they go for NYSC.
The Federal Government has constituted a committee to screen certificates obtained by Nigerian students who studied abroad, says Prof. Julius Okojie, the Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission (NUC).
Okojie made this known while fielding questions from newsmen shortly after the presentation of licences to two new private universities on Thursday in Abuja.
According to Okojie, the committee comprises members from the NUC and the Federal Ministry of Education.
“When they come for NYSC, they are referred to the Ministry of Education to look at the quality of their certificates.
“Recently, the ministry decided to set up a joint committee of NUC and the Federal Ministry of Education to look at the quality of those certificates; the committee has been set up but it has not been inaugurated.
“In Ukraine, where we have many of our students for instance, it is not that all the universities are bad; some are really good but it depends on which one.
“Some of our students who attended universities in Ukraine pass through the UK and get a second degree; in some countries, you can buy a certificate in the airport.’’
He said that mere knowing that a foreign university was approved was not enough as the programme pursued by a student might not be approved.
The NUC boss had earlier expressed concern over the quality of universities Nigerian students attend in the West African sub-region, especially in Ghana.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the universities that got provisional licences are Edwin Clark University, Kaigbodo, Delta State, and Hezekiah University, Umudi, Imo State. (NAN)

Academic activity crippled as UI students protest death of colleague
The death of a first class 200 level student of Human Kinetic of the University of Ibadan, UI, identified as Mayowa Alaran yesterday led to a peaceful protest by students of the institution.
Alaran was said to have given up the ghost at the institution’s health centre at about 8:30pm yesterday after medical personnel refused to attend to him because those who took him to the clinic could not produce his clinic card.
The angry student in the course of the demonstration barricaded all entrances into the institution, and the expressway at Agbowo, thereby causing a gridlock.
According to the protesting students, the deceased at about 8pm slumped and started gasping for air while watching Barcelona versus Bayern Munich Champions League clash at India Hall, a female hostel situated in the institution.
They further added that when Mayowa slumped, students around called the university health centre to send ambulance over but they declined, stating that the only ambulance the centre has was indisposed.
One of the protesting student noted, “The medical students on ground tried their best. They gave him mouth to mouth respiration to resuscitate him to no avail.
Eventually, we carried him straight to the hospital. On getting to the hospital, a staff on duty did not accept him, asking the sick person who could not talk to produce his clinic card or tell them his matriculation number. About thirty minutes after, the boy gave up the ghost.”
While addressing journalist, the SUG President, Femi Odesola said, Mayowa died before getting to the health centre, hence leading to a violent protest by students around him.
The students have however argued that the SUG president usually betray them when it comes to responding to the plights of the students.
They also stressed the need for the Vice Chancellor, Professor Isaac Adewole to punish the staff who refused to attend to Mayowa, while demanding that, “ambulances be provided in all hall of residence as well as constant power supply.”
