With the suspension of the Student’s  Union President;Omotayo Akande,TY,
his vice president,Oprah, who
is the acting President has taken  charge of the
position wholeheartedly.

This information was made known yesterday at a meeting Oprah
had with the students union security team.

According to Oprah, she changed  Michael, the
former Chief Security Officer because his loyalty belong
to the suspended president only.

“Severally, Michael
has pounced on me by saying it’s only the president
who can interfere in the security team’s affair, in fact
he bounced me out of a meeting in his own capacity –
not of anybody instruction and the president was aware of
this with nothing done in its respect ”

Although Oprah has appointed a new
CSO, the security team is yet to accept him
as their boss.
Comrade Upah, a member of security team claimed
Oprah is just overwhelmed by power.

“She has no right
to bring anybody from anywhere to head our team. The
parliament ,even though have not rectified us, have
recognized the security team – we have sent a list of
members including position held by each members to
the house and their resolution ,only intending members
not CSO can join our team” Upah said.

Lukmonfasasinews.com was told by a member of the security team known as smile that “Oprah, insulted us, she asked most of us to shut up
several times even the CSO was embarrassed by Oprah,
when he tried to moderate ”

The former CSO Michael, when asked said ” I can’t
say explicitly that she said I should shut up, but her
reaction did shut me up. Oprah was in the meeting to
fight, she raised several allegations which I debunked
after that she began to impose on us” Michael said.

Meanwhile, acting president Oprah, refuted the
allegation that she insulted the team. She said “That’s
is not true, I did not insult anybody”.
She went on to say she only did what is right.

“As the
acting President, I can decide who is Grand Chief Security Officer of
the union, I need someone I can trust, someone I can
stand for and not someone, who does not have respect
for CEC members. This even pending the one month I
will be acting”. Oprah said.

VP Oprah will Step in as Acting President for One Month.

The Vice President of OAU’s Students Union, Oladunjoye Opeyemi will be acting as the president for the next 30 days following the suspension of the students’ union President, Akande Omotayo.

Oprah will be the first female in many years of  OAU’s student unionism to get an opportunity legally to serve in the capacity of the President.

Former vice president, Oladejo Funmilola (Olori) was close to acting as the President also during the Ibikunle-led administration when she took charge and called for a congress because of the then ill President.

At that point, the sitting was disrupted by Gallerians. When calm was restored, the motion for a month suspension was successfully raised. The sitting started around 5pm on the 31st of July and ended by 3am on the 1st of August.

With this, the vice president, Oladunjoye Opeyemi (Oprah) will assume the office of the president as the acting President.
