According to him, he said his passion to serve humanity propels him to declare for such position. "..I love to carry People along about anything going on around us," he added.
Being an Entertainer, joined with Unionism, many would say to him why not consider other positions like the Social or welfare Director? To him, he insisted his passion as a Public Relator is more than socialite, hence chooses the position of Public Relation Officer. "...I could remember vividly when I first declared to contest for SUG PRO, some people were like is like I don't know what I'm doing, that instead of me to go for social director, but I do answer them that I can only contest for the position I have passion for and not only that, relating with people made me, I'm more of a public relator than a socialite, so I'm contesting for the office I'll be able to discharge, not the one I'll just be there as figure head or for my own selfish interest, " he added.
He however said he has the necessary experience of what it takes to be a Public Relator, especially for someone who is a class Governor. He also assured that he will not commercialize information on his status. "Not at all, and I don't even have that in mind that's why I've worked on myself even before now, I'm not going to the office to gather people or contact, I have them in abundance already, at least I have nothing less than 10,000 contacts of AAUAites, so I'm not going to this office to gather contact but to serve the student populace."
While commending previous predecessors and Incumbent PROs and all other current Executives of his School's Union for the job well-done, he said his information service to the entire Students will be redefined. "Well, I'm coming with a redefined form of information, I want to wake up the media spirit in AAUA and bring it back to form and use, we won't just be having informations reaching us through whatsapp status or groups alone but through the School radio station which over 80% of students does not even know exist, as in, majority of AAUAites has never for once tuned in to listen to that frequency for once, as a media man, these are one of the things I'm coming to do.
"Aside that, we have a lot of talented media personalities among AAUAites that the talent is gradually dying in them because they have no opportunity to showcase it to the world and THE WORLD WILL NEVER BELIEVE YOU CAN DO SOMETHING UNTIL YOU DO IT FOR THEM TO SEE. So I'll be bringing a program which I'll be doing in conjunction with the office of the social director to discover the talented media personalities among AAUAITES.
"I'm coming to redefine ways of disseminating informations, bring back/wake up the media spirit, make AAUAites enjoy every bit of information they are entitled to on and off campus, discover hidden talented media personalities, training and empowering some AAUAites that are interested in media," he explained
He however said he has no preferred Presidential Candidate in the upcoming AAUA SUG Election, but promised to work with whoever emerges.
Reacting to his chances in the Election, from the fact that his Faculty also has a Presidential Candidate, he said since they are two different positions from two different individuals, he said "We are working differently," adding that "No one will block each other in the quest to emerge winner."
While reacting to the ASUU Strike, he charged ASUU to consider innocent Nigerians and advised Students to make good use of the moment. He said, "Well, I would love to say both ASUU and FG did not really love we Nigerian students, though ASUU is fighting for the betterment of the educational sector of our Nation, but in doing that, they should consider we the innocent ones they are wasting their time.
"To me, I will advice everyone to buckle up and start practicing what we call LIFE AFTER SCHOOL now, they should start drawing out plans for themselves, if there's anyone that has business, he/she should face it more, then anyone who wants to learn one work or the other should make good use of this period to do that, but in anything we're doing we should never join them in saying SCHOOL OR EDUCATION IS A SCAM"
He however appreciated the Audience and Electorates, charging them to vote for capability. He said, "To my fellow AAUAites, first and foremost, I really appreciate the love you've been showing on me since I got to this institution and I'm assuring you that if I'm elected as the number four student (PRO) on campus, I'll make sure I serve you with all my strength.
"You've always been enjoying my informative skills and which you'll continue to enjoy, when the time comes, CHOOSE & VOTE CAPABILITY, and I pray the Lord will help us all, but before then, I'll implore you all to utilize your time well because time is everything in life. Thank you, God bless you"
