Speaking with Olasunkanmi Oluwaseyi Akinkunmi, the president of the association, he noted the motives driving this initiative–emphasizing a dedication to academic excellence and the provision of a platform for mutual academic support.
“I am deeply committed to fostering academic excellence and facilitating a collaborative learning environment for all students across various levels,” said Akinkunmi.
Akinkunmi stressed on the unusual attitude of the newly admitted students as nothing to write home about and also raised the tutorial to build them and reveal the custom of the university to them.
According to him, the newly admitted students need proper academic guidance on some courses and to also familiarize them with the university system and how it works in the department”.
He further noted that no fees are charged to participating members.
