UNILORIN SUG President Charges Students On Proper Conduct

The Student Union Government (SUG) at the University of Ilorin has welcomed back returning and new students while advising them on proper behaviour.

The President of the Union, Tobiloba Faji, and a 400-level student of the Department of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering stated this on Tuesday while speaking with newsmen in Ilorin.

“Now that we are back on campus, it is expedient to sensitize our fresh students and remind the returning students that we are a community of intellectuals, and we must conduct ourselves as same.

“We must not be caught in acts that violate the customs, traditions, rules, and regulations of the University. Ours is a university governed by rules that must be strictly adhered to.

“As we prepare to commence full academic activities, I enjoin all ‘Unilorites’ to join hands inclusively in the intrinsic and extrinsic development of our University community,” he expressed.

The student leader assured that the administration is committed to prioritising student interests.

According to him, the union is actively working to ensure student participation in decision-making processes affecting them directly.

“We understand the challenges, and we pledge to be undeterred in our constant negotiation and interaction in tackling these challenges.

“It is time to buckle up; the days ahead will test your strength and resolve. 

"The University of Ilorin demands that you are fit mentally, psychologically, physically, emotionally, academically, and in character, ready to face all challenges head-on as you encounter them on your sojourn as an undergraduate,” he added.

The student leader, however, commended University management for its support of both the Union leadership and the student population as a whole.

With their continued support, Faji added, the student union will transform campus life into a better experience for all stakeholders.
