STOP INTERFERING IN NAOS POLITICS, NAOSITES TELL PRINCE KOLAWOLE, TAOFIQ ISA AND OTHERS.

By Samuel Oj Temibi

The Leaders of National Association Of Okun
Students has warned the recalcitrant agents of
Kogi State government to stay clear from its
affairs.

It would be recalled that on the 31st of
December 2017, the union unanimously elect its
executive for the 2018 administration but it was
surprising when some elements perceived to be
from the State Government came up on social
media to announce a fake list of NAOS
executive that has been rejected by the people of the zone.

It was revealed that the secret election was
conducted at GOLDEN GROUND ROYAL HOTEL Kabba, the
hotel which belongs to the speaker of Kogi State
House Of Assembly Rt Prince Kolawole Matthew.

It was also leaked that the elements who
conducted the unconstitutional election was
given the sum of 500,000 by the Kogi State
speaker to perfect the unconstitutional election.

According to this report, Prince KOLAWOLE
Matthew, Hon Taofiq Isa, Hon MD Eseyin and
other unknown agents of Kogi State government
are the influencers of this unpleasant work to
cause confusion in the union.

In a swift reaction to this, the stakeholders of
the Association totally condemn the overzealous
attitude of those elements sponsored by the
state government to perpetrate the bid, speaking
on the desperate move of these mischief
makers, Alamoh Kehinde Samuel, a stakeholder
from Ijumu Local Government said, it is outrightly
wrong for these recognised elements to conduct
a factitious election after the legitimately
nominated Elcom Chairman has declared the
elected executive of the union.

Also speaking on the issue, Comrade Cephas
Alepa said that NAOS is not a political platform
for government projection and as such,
government should not interfere or dictate who
is to steer the vehicle of the union.

The stakeholders therefore, maintained that the
union has been existing before the present
government of Kogi State without any
disturbance from the past governments and as
such, it would amount to breaking of the rights
of the organization if the present government
continue to show much interest in its affairs.

The below persons were dully elected as the
NAOS executive.

1. Opeyemi Ojagun Samuel(Okun boy)- National
President.

2. Olupehin Olubunmi Margareth- Senate
President

3. Aiyenigba Mercy- Secretary General

4. Olasunkanmi Owoniyi J- Vice President

5. Aiyegbonka Alaba- Financial Secretary

8. Joseph Segun- Director of Sport

9. Saliu Tope- Director of Walfare

8. Olusanmi Shola Samuel- Director of Aluta/
