To Whom It May Concern
You are having a beautiful start in a high position among the students, but don’t be too joyous of the position you found yourself now. I will implore you to look at the misconception of some of your predecessors, before you start rejoicing . Ask yourself, “does this truly call for happiness?”
Of course, you will find out later in time during your tenure, that there has been mishandling of offices, negligence of constitutional duties and others
However, the question is still that “does that still call for happiness? Before sitting on the seat, think about what, and how much will be needed to fix the mess created by some of your predecessors. While still on your feet, create strategy to climb the mountain in front of you. Somehow, you will find other sorts of issues which will affect your administration, however, it is left to you to find ways, you can tackle them now that you haven’t settle down.

If you are sitting on the seat already, you can still find your way around, while it’s still early in your tenure about these upcoming, and unseen events.
It is expected that these conditions, will come in form of threats or obstruction. In fact, the aforementioned ones may pop up once again under your administration. Will you allow these conditions, to become a reality before thinking of ways to curb the situation brought around by the situation?
I will also advise you to abstain from becoming “Leader Isọnu“, who believes everything he does, will be supported by his dogmatic followers. Will you rather be a capacity leader, who produces leading leaders in the future? Or are you planning, to be a leader who meet with political godfathers at restaurants, bars and buka to enjoy and dance to Buga.

Well, I know you will also need security men in students’ form, to follow you around just like your predecessor. Should the students expect that, you will be approachable when it’s time? Oh, you only make use of them for your safety among students, right? This is when their dogmatic selves become wiser, and clearly they realize the type of leader they elected.
It seems right in your predecessor, jurisdiction, to send away the press, resist them, or even harassed them on other occasion. Does it seems right to you too?
I know you still remember the congress’ decision which sent the former Mr. Speaker of SRC, to a total of one and a half semester suspension. In between, he looked favored by the court verdict to be reinstated, which he was never, until when the second semester was at the verge of ending. A simple question is “Will you also not have respect for the Judicial Council of the Union during your administration”?
Building Bridges: Fostering Collaboration Between Students and University Administration
The students are hoping that the new start under your administration will strengthen their relationship with you, and perhaps with the university administration. They are hoping for more innovations that will help improve the standard of living. Above all, they are hoping for a leader that can lead them not into frustration, to the extent of turning them into dogmatic followers.
Reading this, may actually make you think, it is best to wait until a problem occurs before looking for ways to curb it. However, my advice to you is “To Make Hay While The Sun Shines”.
