This include coverage of its activities, educating members (students) on the performance and activities of the SUG and the students representative council.

This became necessary in order to move away from the oblivion, which the activities of the SUG/ the Council has been in the past.

Hosted by the SRC Speaker, Rt. Hon. Asekun Elijah, the programme with the theme, “The Youth; Analytical Approach of Political Intervention in Democratization”, is targeted at laying a foundation of youths participation in political affairs, using the student environment as a building block for such development.

In an era of rapid advancement birthed by young and innovative minds, development-minded societies have shifted their attention into the utilization of youth potentials across every sphere of life. Such development is worth emulating, but it starts with sensitization, education, and engagement of the youths.

Notable speakers slated for the event include the Director General of Lagos State Sports Commission, Hon. Oluwatoyin Gafar Bolowotan, newly elected APC National Youth Leader, Temidayo Israel, APC Lagos State Chapter Youth Leader, Dr. Seriki Muritala, Majority Leader of Lagos State House of Assembly, Hon.
