LAW STUDENTS' REPRESENTATIVE COUNCIL LEGISLATIVE CONFERENCE

PRESS STATEMENT

The Law Students’ Society poses as the umbrella and unifying body of all Students of Law in the Faculty of Law, Obafemi Awolowo University. Its Legislative arm, the Law Students’ Representative Council meanwhile further buttresses the sacred objectives and essence of the Society through the organizing of a host of sessional programmes all aimed at breeding, enlightening and churning out students of law full-fledged and imbued not only with substantive and procedural law acumen but also legislative, leadership and administrative dexterity. Pursuant to these objectives, the instant Legislative Conference becomes imperative and epoch-making.

This Legislative Conference code-named “The Role of Parliamentarians in Nation Building” has a rich assemblage of seasoned intellectuals and scholars in the crucial subject matter of parliamentarianism including Prof. Pius Adesanmi, Director, Institute of African Studies, Carleton University. Canada, Hon. Adekunle Akinalde, Member House of Representatives, Hon. Ayo Omidiran, Member, House of Representatives, Hon. Rotimi Makinde, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, Speaker Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Najeem Salam, Speaker, Osun State House of Assembly, Amb. Nasiru Adhama, SSA to the President on Youth and Student Matters, Hon. Wasiu Musa, Deputy Speaker, Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon. Adewumi Oluwasegun, Deputy Speaker, Ekiti State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Rafiu Adejare Bello, Former Speaker, Osun State House of Assembly, Alh. Sanni Omolori, Clerk of the National Assembly, Dr Ladi Hamalai, Director General, Nigerian Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, Abuja and a handful of a few others lending their authoritative and much-anticipated voices to boiling issues in parliamentarianism.

Highpoints of this conference will be marked by sound delivery of keynote speeches, Scientific Session involving paper presentations, Panelist discourses, and very essentially, the official launching of the first-ever Student-Legislative magazine code-named “The Mace” accounts for an equally indispensable point of the conference to the massive attention and admiration of all, including ten sister-tertiary institutions (UI, UNILAG, OOU, EKSU, AAUA, AJAYI CROWTHER, BEN IDAHOSA etc) already invited for participation at the conference.

The Conference is scheduled to hold on Friday, January 27, 2017, 9am at the prestigiius Oduduwa Hall of the Institution.

AN OPEN LETTER TO Nnmadi Kanu.
Dear Mr. Nnamdi Kanu,
You might not be able to read this;but I do hope it reaches you somehow. I wanted to tell you how I admire you,especially with the leadership role you are playing in leading the "progressive"Ibo people under the aegis of Indigenous People Of Biafra(IPOB) from the south-east geo-political zone of this country. It requires courage far greater than I could muster.
Also of importance to this letter is about the struggle to rescue this country and find a sustainable solution to our decades long problem emerging from the nooks and crannies of this entity.

102years ago, the Northern and the southern protectorate of Nigeria were amalgamated by the British colonial governor Fredrick Lugard for administrative purposes. Such union had been fought in the past by some of our founding fathers.
Interestly,we've come a long way to preserve and protect the sanctity of our union since 1914. After the indepenence of 1960 from the British government and attaining the status of republic in 1963, the foundation of this union had been tested by numerous challenges such as coup D'etat (bloody&bloodless), regional struggle, civil war,religious bigotry,"chameleon" form of government,recession and recently the movement to restructure the political and economic institution of this nation. Have observed that we've always emerged stronger from these myriad of obstacles.
It is my sincere concern to address the agitation that you are currently been persecuted for, and that is the secession of the south-east from the federation. I identify myself with the plight of the Ibo people since the collapse of the first republic in 1966. But Identifying myself with this plight is not my immediate motive but rather seeing this issue as a Nigeria problem and not the problem of neither the south nor the north.

As a youth who will soon be out from the inside world(university) to the outside world( one sided structure of Nigeria political and economic system),I think the sustainable way for the people of the south-east to attain their desire goal of political and economic success is beyond seceding from the federation. Over the past few weeks have taken my time to engaged my fellow students on wayforward for us as a nation.some are clamoring for the separation of the union, some are agitating for restructuring , while others want a revolution. But have also realized that the composition and the structure of this country is "uniquely different" from any other on this planet.

The way we got our independence is hugely different from the way the US fought the Britain to be free, it differs from how India was independent and it diverge from the way Ghana was independent.
The first step of my approach to a sustainable solution for all of us in this country to once again live the dream of our founding fathers is by mandating the buhari's led federal government to adopt the 2014 confab report. Although, the constitution of members of the confab was not perfect but have rather find there recommendations appealing. There recommendations have taken care of both our age long issues and present day struggle such as fiscal federalism,youth empowerment and participation in government, local and national security,institutional development,social equality among the six-geo political zones, economic development and diversification of the economy, resource control e.t.c. I hope Nigerian youths will get their hands on this document and realize is time to speak up.
Secondly sir, you can use your leverage to awaken the spirit of patriotism and level of consciousness of our teeming youths to ensure the full adoption of this report in collaboration with different stakeholders such as labour unions,civil groups,NANS, religious bodies, ASUU,NASU,NBA,political parties,e.t.c.
Thirdly, the unification of this union and the promotion of our oneness rather than our differences is the source of our strength.
With this peaceful approach,slowly but surely we will bend the trajectory of this country towards social equality, social justice , strong institutions and we shall in the end enjoy the Nigeria of our dream. That does not mean we should not protest about what is wrong but rather we must not fear to protest but we must never protest out of fear just like what happened during the national protest against the removal of fuel subsidy, we almost change the trajectory of this country then, but the rest is history.
I condemn in strong term the plan of the federal government to conduct a secret trial based on the charges brought against you. I solidarize with you and hope our youths will rather be more motivated to stand up for the truth no matter the consequences. Nelson Mandela is a legacy for us just like the way you are now inspiring us towards a "NEW NIGERIA" in the not too distant future. I hope to work with you in realisation of the "NEW NIGERIA" after whatever god you are serving has brought you out safely from your present persecution. A NEW NIGERIA where no matter the region you came from you can attain whatever you desire,a NEW NIGERIA where institutions will be stronger than individuals not even the president and a NEW NIGERIA where there is massive investment in our infrastructures,education,social security,economy,health sector.e.t.c. Just like the statement made by the late chief obafemi awolowo while also going through your present situation, he said "there will be light after the tunnel".
May the peace and hope that comes with the birth of our lord Jesus Christ be your portion and strengthen you in your current plight. Merry Christmas and happy new year in advance.
Yours Sincerely,
JEGEDE ABAYOMI S.,

A YOUTH MANIFESTO FOR REVOLUTION

Pursuant to the unchanged slogan that "youths are the leaders of tomorrow", and guided by the vigilant consciousness that we are the custodians and natural trustees for building the bridge of hope for any society's sustainable prosperity, I am prompted to write the cheetah generation which i also belong to.
Given Africa's heightening state of underdevelopment and poor leadership, it has become expedient to make our generation's determining role in rewriting the progress history of Africa.

Every society is blessed with nature's endowment of a youthful force with unique characteristics of strength, skills, energy, innovations, intelligence, and time for exploits. To ensure that the usefulness of youth's time is translated to stagecraft & national development, the formative period and educational system play fundamental roles.

In our time in Nigeria, I have however, felt the wide unconnected relevance of our educational theorizing to core societal dividends of development. And I have a grave fear burning in my heart because the more we keep producing young " leaders and entrepreneurs " whom neither have deep settled realistic ideas, innovations, skills and savvies nor the passion of patriotism to effect novel developmental order in Africa, the more blank our hope of Africa's greatness.

But it is established wisdom that power, greatness & success is never Christmas gifts; hence, though the system may be functioning on a set back scale for creating an enabling environment and opportunities for youth participation in the socio-economic and political landscape of our country, it is the duty of every young African to work outside the limit of our systems for active patriotic participation in social affairs.

THE REVOLUTION OF OUR TIME
The experience of failure is never a pleasant one and nothing ever succeeds more like success particularly societal change and revolution. When, why and what manner of revolution is needful therefore to salvage our current socio-economic and political quagmire?

In swift response, I would affirm that a revolution is apt & needful at a moment and time like this in Nigeria when all developmental strategies have defied and failed our entreaties, when disorder seems celebrated as normalcy, and when all possibilities of hope and optimism seem impossible.

Why do we need revolution? Our nation is in dare need of transformational revolution in all spheres and institutions of our society mainly because our current state of affairs of corruption, poor leadership, lack of sustainable innovations, ethnic divisions, and greed have remained weighty clog on the wheel of our collective progress.

What manner of revolution can sufficiently reconstruct and edify our almost decayed corporate existence? Behavioral and mental revolution remains in tandem with the age long commonsense demand for societal renewal. This will help we the people to alter our self-centered attitudes and imbue our spirits with the philosophy of collective good and progress; knowing that all major changes in the world started with the individual self.

THE MANIFESTO OF THE YOUTH
As a youth, I hereby declare myself for service to my society in honest patriotism and sincerity of selflessness, to network with legion of other young people with similar interests & purpose for state development.
1. That I shall apply my youthful energy, intelligence, time, ideas, aspirations, hope & learning to the pursuit and actualization of our collective national dream of a more equitable, prosperous, sustainably developed, and globally relevant nation.

2. That we as youths as the societal hope, shall continually seek knowledge to show forth the ingenuity and uniqueness of Africa's positive exceptionality.

3. Whereas, our forefathers complained of the associated evils of colonialism, and our fathers complained of bad leadership, now our fathers are the leaders but with special certifications on failed leadership; history beckons on us therefore to evoke quality leadership of hope for the common good of our people.

4. That we the youths shall seek leadership and enterprising savvies relevant to prompt stellar and transcendent contributions to national sustainable development.

5. That we shall shun all elements of greed, selfishness, and corruption.

6. That we must network widely to build collaborative and corporative leadership with other young like minds.

7. That collectively with one vision, one purpose and one dream of a great Nigeria, shall we bash forth in sparkling victory of development success.

8. That I had rather die with a golden name in our history book of wisdom than be buried with golden casket of shame for short changing our people's opportunities.

9. That I had better be studied in schools as a curriculum of hope for humanity's advancement than to be sentenced to disgrace in the Court of Greed and Corruption.
10. That I fully understand that Africa is far from being developed, and great need abide for true development and real change in Africa.

This is my dream as a young man, and I challenge you to dare dream bigger dreams than mine that we may set our continent free from our current shackles of underdevelopment.

Yours-in-Hope of a Developed Africa,

Ekpa, Stanley Ekpa
