As Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko Students Union (AAUASU) 2020/2021 executives led by Ogunsanmi Kolade popularly known as Multiple leaves office in a few months, students of the institution clamor for a better AAUASU administration for the 2021/2022 academics session.
Stating their expectations in an interview with ECHO MEDIA, the students appreciated the outgoing executives for their agitations for a better system and for making life easier for the students.
Highlighting the key areas the next administration can contribute to the betterment of the students, they urged them to improve in these areas where the outgoing executives have done wrong.
A 400-level student of Political Science, Samuel Agbelusi said the incoming executives should work with the management for the full implementation of the online learning system module, easy access to internet services on campus, and constant electricity supply.
Agbelusi added that they [the incoming administration] should also consolidate on the achievements of the outgoing executives and have strategic plans towards the implementation of realistic goals.
"My expectation is for them to ensure that AAUA lives up to the standard of a 21st-century University," he added.
"This current administration has tried in many ways and I can only say that the incoming administration should just leverage and improve or do better with the one they can. Human wants are unlimited but then a feasible framework and realistic targets will set the groundwork rolling."
Another student, Mohammed Zainudeen Tosin, 400-level Business Administration stated that the incoming executives should address the epileptic power supply in the school environment.
Mohammed maintained that the incoming administration should ensure students do not pay for the electricity they did not use.
According to him, they should collaborate with the institution's shuttle drivers to lessen the transportation fare.
His words, "They should help us to talk to the school management about the CBT Center because most of the computers in CBT Center are not functioning properly."
Similarly, Ezeamaka Amarachi, a 200-level student of Criminology and Security Studies, the students should elect mature leaders with intellectual engagement in the forthcoming election.
"In terms of synergy between students and the management, I feel the current administration lacks in that aspect and it's very important for the next SU leaders to work on it."
In the same vein, Joy Akinlosotu, a 400-level student of Mass Communication, beseeched the next administration to be more concerned about the students; ensure they render pleasant services before leaving office.
Akinlosotu said, "At least students should feel their impact not them achieving their selfish interest. They are the leaders — should lead and represent us well not vandalize what all students should enjoy."
On her part, Clarion Oyeronke, a 400-level student of Mass Communication urged the next administration to liaise with the school management to open the big gate.
"They should continue with the better administration of multiple. They can do better than them.
Moreso, a student who pleaded anonymity said his expectations from the next executives are "they should negotiate with the management and make the payment of school fees easier for the students."
"They should agitate for the students in terms of payments because students are suffering a lot but the management doesn't care. I could remember last semester when a friend didn't register for his course early, he was forced to pay backend registration before he could do his course registration, whereas he was not owing the school because he does pay his school fees once every session."
Speaking further, the student said "students' welfarism should be their utmost priority after their education. I know everyone came here to learn but choose humanity in the process of learning, therefore student humanity should also be their priority."
The student further stated that the incoming executives should cultivate the habit of responding to students' requests and the Campus Journalists for the benefit of all.
According to the student, the Students Union Building should be made accessible to all students, not only the executives.
Ast at press time, the timetable for the Students Union election is yet to be released by the school management.
