Delegates from Oyo state to the 2022 Convention of the National Union of Nigerian Students (NANS) yesterday paid a strategic courtesy visit to the Director-general, Oyo State Liaison Office, Abuja and Lagos, Wale Ajani.

The NANS delegates were led by the Special Assistant on Student Affairs to the Governor of Oyo state, Victor Olojede and the state president of JCC, Comrade Quadri Adeleke.

The meeting which primarily centered around the second term agenda of Governor Seyi Makinde, and his development of education and infrastructures in the last three years held in Ibadan, the capital city of the state with no fewer than 10 leaders of other student union bodies from across the state in attendance.

The student leaders in their separate remarks described Makinde as ‘students friendly’ governor who is genuinely committed to development of education and student community in the state while appealing for more support for students of higher institutions in the state.

They assured that Makinde’s commitment and investment in education particularly as affecting the wellbeing of students across state owned tertiary institutions have earned him the confidence required to convince the future leaders to work assiduously for his second term to enable him do more.

Ajani, while commending the student leaders and NANS delegates from Oyo state described their visit as very timely and strategic as it will create room for robustness in intellectual engagements towards the actualization of Governor Makinde’s second term agenda.

Ajani, who was a former Oyo Central Senatorial Aspirant on the platform of the ruling People’s Democratic Party PDP said, Makinde’s leadership in politics and government is exceptionally convincing for anyone who genuinely desires to serve public interest to key into.

Speaking in an exclusive media chat via phone call with Westernmirror news today August 2nd, Ajani said the student union leaders who are described as leaders of tomorrow have already found a man helping them build and secure their tomorrow in Seyi Makinde and have decided to play their parts.

Assuring that his office will be opened for more robust engagements with the students leaders in subsequent meetings said only self serving and selfish politicians would want to stand in the way of a man that is already getting the job done.

Ajani said Makinde’s achievements within three years in office far outweigh what the last administration did in its entire eight years stressing that if Mainde is re-elected for second term come 2023, Oyo state would be listed among top three investment destinations in Africa by the end of 2027.

Corroborating this position, Ajani said Makinde’s achievements in the areas of wealth creation, investment generation, and development of critical infrastructures have all earned the state its recent rating as the 2nd fastest developing City in Africa ahead of Lagos state and just a step behind Accra, Ghana.

According to Ajani, he appealed to the students to take the message down to their various institutions and sensitize young voters on the need to vote wisely and refuse to be financially induced by politicians who are merely desperate to buy their ways to the Agodi Government House at all cost stressing that their primary aim is not to serve but further amass wealth for themselves at the detriments of the general public.
