Dear Nalissites,
Today marks a significant milestone in my journey as I stand before you, deeply grateful and honored to have been elected as the President of our great department National Association of Library and Information Science Students (NALISS) prior to the election conducted few months ago. First and foremost, I give thanks to God Almighty for His grace and guidance, which has made this journey possible and relatively smooth.
I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to the esteemed lecturers who entrusted me with this remarkable opportunity: Dr. Mrs. Awodoyin, Dr. Osisanwo, Dr. Simisaye, Mrs. Adeyeoye, Mrs. Afolabi, and Mrs. Olutoki. Your support and belief in me mean the world, and I am truly grateful for your mentorship and guidance.
I extend my deepest gratitude to all the students who believed in me, supported me, and cast their votes in my favor. Your confidence in my leadership is a source of inspiration, and I am committed to serving you all to the best of my abilities.
I also want to acknowledge and appreciate my predecessor, Akinsanya Elizabeth Adewunmi, for her unwavering support during her tenure and beyond. Your guidance and encouragement have been invaluable, and I am honored to continue the legacy you have built as the NALISS President.
Despite the delayed start due to the inauguration process, I want to assure you that we have already begun working diligently to implement our vision for the department. Our team, Team Transformation, is committed to bringing about positive change, advancing the work of past regimes, and fostering innovation and evolution within NALISS.
One of our key initiatives will be Digital Empowerment, where NALISSites will participate in an innovative program focused on developing essential digital skills in finance, blogging, and technology.
