By Peter Emmanuel

The long-awaited 2023 Students Union Election of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko will be held tomorrow, Thursday and aspirants are ready to obtain the leadership baton from the outgoing student union representatives. 

Recall that last week the Student Union Electoral Committee screened out two major contestants who were vying for different important positions in the Student Union.

One of the aspirants, SEYIFUNMI FRANCIS ADEOSUN (Francophone) a 400-Level student from the Faculty of Law, contesting for the position of President has cleared the air regarding his disqualification.

Reacting to his disqualification, Francis Seyifunmi said, "Utilitarian leadership project is not dead, our time will come. Although I intend to lead our Union for the next academic session due to some technicalities which border on the report of the SDC, I was not in any way indicted by any committee, nor do I have any issue with the Security Unit or management."

Francophone further explained the cause of his ordeal with the Student Disciplinary Committee (SDC). He said he was invited on the grounds of the last protest and his activeness on a Whatsapp platform tagged "MAKE AAUASU BETTER".

Adeosun Francis said the reports of the Student Disciplinary Committee (SDC) never indicted him but because the report of the SDC was not approved by the Senate, as such, a pending case which was a major criterion for the candidates to be qualified for elections within the varsity.

"I have your best interests at heart and I will continue to. Let it be on record that I have become a victim for the sake of better Union and Society." Francophone assures the student to stand strong and continue to believe in this project.

He added, "Even they tried to bury us, but we are like a seed, we will germinate and bear fruits. This period is very tough for us but we will triumph. Keep calm and handle this period with maturity, we will be back," Francophone reassured.
