It is no longer a news that the current election of Student Union Central Executive Council of University of Ilorin, this session is one of the most engaging and toughest to expect. With the cooperation of the current administration and ISEC commissioners, they want this to be the fairest and most transparent election in the modern history of Unilorin.
With this Agape and other media personalities wants a fair voting from the voters too, with this motive burning in us; it brought out the movement of compiling all the manifesto of candidates who are ready to show the voters what they have for us. Robert Greene said "an aspiring leader who hides from the public before emerging will never be transparent when he becomes the leader". This is a movement of anticipating transparency, we want the student not just to vote because of just the name but because of the blueprint the candidate have for them.
Any candidate whose manifesto doesn't appear here as believed is not ready to be transparent and not willing to give his blueprint to the populace of this great 'better by far' institution maybe because they don't want them to be questioned in the future or any other reason which we can't just introspect.
Whatever is written and put on a global space like this will always be there and we can use it to put them on check when they emerge. According to Chris Timble 'media is a great tool to keep our leaders on check'.
This is not a political movement as friendship and other relationship is taken out of it, not even a comma is added or subtracted from what is submitted.

Name: Abolarin Tomisin J. (Teejhay)
Faculty: Education
Department: Educational Technology
Level: 300 level
Position: Social Secretary (Student Union)
If noting is done about anything thing will remain the way they are.
Student Social activities play a vital role in the student experience and contribute massively to making this university and union what it is. You will totally agree with me that a society that has a bad Social life, especially the university; a citadel of learning will never be productive. I believe that a huge part of your student life comes from your student union. I want to make it something that students will remember as part of their amazing experience.
Throughout my time at this University I have wanted to make the most of my experience. I joined the former and the present SU officials in carrying out nearly all social activities in this “Better by far University” and then became the bone behind the Student Union Ultra Cinema: the Cinema that belongs to the SU and Show movies for the Students every Friday to release them of their weekly stress. I also joined the current SU sport director in making sporting activities more social. Through being in these roles, I have a great understanding of what the union needs and how it is run especially in the social aspect. By having a close relationship with current SU officials whilst handling some vital social events in the University, I have developed a greater knowledge for the needs of student’s social life and what I can do to improve their experience.
Social activities at Unilorin: Over the years I have been a Student in this University, the Social life has been dormant but thanks to the current administration for the life being brought into our campus this Academic session. I wish to take this into my hands and make sure that next academic session I continue and make the students at Unilorin receive high-class facilities and events socially. And with my vast knowledge in the social media space too, projecting everything social won't be a problem as machinery will be staged in that regards.
Why do you need to vote for me?
I Abolarin popularly known as “Teejhay” has joined the current administration in the following SU activities
Fresher’s night, popularly known as bun-fire night
SU ultra Cinema: a weekly filmshow
Unilorin Idol 2
Cultural Night
Student Union week
Dinner
To the faculty of education where I come from, I have been a part of
Picnic
Inter-departmental dance
Public lecture
Odyssey: an excursion
King and Queen of Nuesa
With all my part, energy and brain used in these and more, it shows that I have learnt what it takes and I know about social lives in the University.
I will continue with all these Social activities and improve on them
I will include two more activities which I have started working on into the social life of this “Better by Far” University.
Which are:
Introduction of the countdown entertainment chart, which will include, top artiste, top music, top comedian, top blogs, top producers, top dance group e.t.c. This will give us a definite line of who is doing what and also support other people doing the same thing.
Karaoke concert will also be included
I want to provide a better student union for students in I will look at how I can make the SU a better place to be and will also look at having a connection with companies, Music labels and contract managers.
I will also provide social and educative places to go during the week and in between lectures for variation with the help of the school administration.
My ideal University would be, to have everybody coming together to socialize and partake in events. However, I feel the only people that come together are sports teams. I want to help students feel as though they can be involved even if they’re not part of a sports team or society. I want to put on events that a broad range of people will want to take part in together. I would also like for students to go and watch events and to provide a stronger connection/bond between students.
COMMUNICATION is another aspect I will work on, as I will work hand-in-hand with the SU-PRO and other media personnel around campus to be made aware of what is going on and when.
I also want students to be able to have a connection with the SU, so they can have a say in what can make it better. Of course students will be in the best position to say what the SU can do to improve. To have their point of view will benefit the student union, Students and University at large.
Introduction of UNILORIN BILLBOARD to put the entertainment industry on a national map.
Extension of Ultra cinema to college of health science. (COHS)
Unilorin laugh Attack (ULA) and COHS must laff
I will like to drop this before I leave that “Vote for a man who can do it, a man who understands it, a man who will improve it and not someone who will come and learn here. It is just one year; a time too short to gamble with.

SOCIAL SECRETARY MANIFESTO
NAME: FERUKE-BELLO MUBARAK
NICK: MUBEE
INTRODUCTION: Good day ladies and gentlemen, my name is Feruke-bello Mubarak popularly known as MUBEE. I am a 300 level student of university of Ilorin (UNILORIN), department of Mathematics precisely. I have considered taking up a stand for the post of social secretary in our great students union for 2017/2018 session. I believe I am the right candidate for the post because I am creative, enthusiastic, reliable, well organized and friendly. I am sure everyone will agree that the present social secretary popularly known as penperenpe has set the bar high for his successor after haven recorded various successful events on campus and upholding this standard is nothing less than what the students deserve. When elected, it’s a role I wouldn’t take lightly for I would strive from the beginning of my term in office to create a fantastic social calendar for the better by far students.
EXPERIENCE: I was the social director of the National Association of Mathematics Student of Nigeria (NAMSN) for 2015/16 and 2016/17 during which I have gained experience in organizing social activities and events. I also gained proper exposure to events coordination by being an active member of various social committees in which I have contributed positively to the success of every activity or event hosted by the committee. I am naturally an outgoing person and organizing of events is more of something I just like doing and good at.
WHAT I HOPE TO ACHIEVE: MAXIMUM PUBLICITY: I have put so much thought into this role already and have great ideas that will benefit the better by far students. I would work closely with the PRO to promote all students union social events and also work hand in hand with media bodies and blogs to create the hype around campus. Also working together with every faculty and departmental socials in planning and aspect of publicity will enhance the magnitude of people involved in social events within the school to its maximum.
TALENTS RECOGNITION: I have also looked closely at the aspect of recognition and I realized most of the talents, skills and gifts we exhibit in this great university are only recognized within the school domain of which I believe they deserve more than that, so when elected I plan on giving wide recognition to those who deserve it by using social media platforms such as (Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, twitter, etc.) and also partnering with renowned media and entertainment organizations such as television stations.
LAUNCHING NEW WEBSITE: When elected, I have plans to launch the first students union official entertainment website, which would serve as an avenue for the general public to catch updates, reviews, news and trends on social activities around the school.
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES (Indoor and outdoor): When elected, I would also make sure to organize indoor and outdoor social activities and events such as (movie/cinema night at the SUB, theatre night at the PFA theatre to give recognition to our upcoming and talented student actors and actresses, fashion concerts, documentary screening at SUB, and more).
TALENT EXHIBITION: When elected, Talent hunt and exhibition platforms such as (UNILORIN Idol, UNILORIN got talent, UNILORIN dancehall, etc.) would also be organized for the better by far students to come showcase the various gifts, skills and talents they possess to the public, of which I believe will earn them social recognition on and off campus.
FRESHERS NIGHT: As for incoming first years next session, I would use my own personal experience from this year to create a fun, relaxing and friendly environment for freshers, especially during the orientation and freshers week and also give them a warm welcome by organizing a spectacular freshers welcome party by tradition called “bon fire”, which will be an avenue to bring togetherness and familiarity to one another and having fun time doing so.
PUBLIC OPINION PLATFORMS: I have noticed, in particular that many of our students have felt neglected from time to time and perhaps feel no room has been given to them to express what they want from the social sector of this great university. When elected, I would use platforms such as Facebook page to get opinions from the public and also liaise with our school radio station UNILORIN FM, to hear suggestions from the better by far students. S.U
DINNER/AWARD NIGHT + CULTURAL DAY: As we all well know the Student union Dinner/award night and cultural night are two of the biggest events on our social calendar. Going on the back of this year’s huge success I think we can go bigger and better in terms of numbers, bands and themes to be released in due course and I work best towards something when it is highly anticipated. However, I would say none of these can be achieved without the help of yourselves. You are the ones behind the success of any event haven been recorded in this great university in time past, you are the ones who keep it alive. I hope you will vote for me come election day. A vote for me is really a vote for yourselves! I have so much to give next session. Thanks for creating time to read through. Mubee for social is non-negotiable.
Real one
