The newly inaugurated Executives of the National Association of Mass Communication Students (NAMACOS), Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko chapter, for the 2021/2022 academic session have assured students of the department an all-inclusive administration.
The new president, Akinlonu Tobiloba gave the assurance after the handing over and swearing ceremony held at the Mass Communication Relaxation Centre (MRC) on Monday.
Akinlonu reiterated his led administration's commitment towards good governance, fairness, and equity. He further said he is optimistic about the bright future of the department.
His words: "We are working on making the TV/Radio studio more active, providing better facilities for all students and better skill development, including Content Creation, Video Editing, Podcasts and others."
Other new executives are Iremitide Ogunlawe, Vice President; Ebimini Tamarauemi, Treasurer; Olayiwola Olaoluwa, Welfare Director; Ogunfuyi Anthony, Social Director; Emmanuel Olowe, Sports Director; Oyinlola Apoeso, General Secretary; and Adebisi Johnson, the Assistant General Secretary.
As of the press time, the following positions are yet to be filled: Public Relations Officer(PRO), Financial Secretary, Librarian, Chief Whip one and Whip two.
In his speech, the Head of the Department (HOD), Dr. Gbenga Abimbola, charged the new executives with effective representation.
Abimbola welcomed the new 100-Level students of the department while he tasked the executives on constant organizing of tutorials for the new intakes.
He further urged the new students to prioritise their academics on campus.
"You (Executives) must listen to them — fresh and returning students — as far as it is legitimate, you must champion their challenges. It is when you do this that the confidence reposed in you will be justified regardless of if they are your mates, junior or senior. Representing them well involves caring for them."
A 100-Level student of the department, Keita Ibrahim shared his expectations with ECHO Media and called on the new executives for an intimate understanding of students' plights.
He said: "My expectations from them are stable and independent leadership, understanding and fulfilling their duties."
Similarly, a 300-Level student, Goodness Olukayode called for an improved relationship between the executives and members of the department.
"I will urge the new executives to perform better than the previous administration," he said.
