The past six months have been a very emotional for me, my loved ones and my family in Bogoso in the WR. I have shed silent tears due to the many untruths and propaganda against my person. Some said I am arrogant and a broken record due to my unsuccessful political ambitions at the JCR level. The lies and made-up stories were many.
The game plan was to incite you and my loved ones to denounce me, to frustrate my unbridled ambitions to serve you the little I can as the next SRC Vice President.
But I have been notoriously divine. I have responded to all of them in the best way I can; I have assured you of my unquestionable humility, a seed planted and watered in me in the community of Omanjor; I have told you about the usual unintelligent evil format of opposers discrediting the affable, all-loving gentleman as a “play boy”. I have also admitted, however cautiously that, power corrupts but I shall I remain your servant.
I was more encouraged by you to keep fighting on after realizing the malice and evil plots against me. Today, I’m unbroken because of you, and I continue to pray for my adversaries.
I choose my senior brother, Prince Asumadu, not because of my uninformed biases or personal affiliation with him over the years, rather, because you advised me to. I recall the many testimonies that many of you my seniors and colleagues alike shared with me about this Sociology student whose name continues to remind us that we still have “good young politicians”.
You told me he was calm, deep in thoughts, humane and above all selfless towards the academics of students. I am not concerned about his political colours, neither am I concerned about mine nor the many self-inflected political mafiarism, because your priority should be the only focus of any two who wish to lead you the good students of this great university. The question I asked is, can Wisdom and Prince deliver, and that is a big YES. If so, then leadership must transcend politics!
Yes I admit, in level 200 I wanted to serve you in the capacity of the Veep of my hall, the Elizabeth Francis Sey. I also admit early this year I wanted to serve you yet again, this time around as the President of this same hall. Though these bold steps were unsuccessful, it tells of my penchant and will to serve you, to leave a good name and to impact the annals of student leadership of this school.
The naysayers prefer to call this a cursed failure, but I prefer to call it a package of EXPERIENCE and an UNBROKEN SPIRIT born out of true desire to serve students.
I can assure you our future as students is safe with Prince and myself. We cannot do everything but we cannot also do nothing. I have never been encouraged like this before. I am confident you will hear my last prayer to you and give us the opportunity to prove all the cynics wrong.
FOR HIS WILL TO BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. AMEN
The WISDOM NDUKWEU
