In line with the resolutions of NAPS LRC sitting held on 8th of July, 2024 to inaugurate 8 interim co-opted members to the house and to screen the Candidates who want to run for the vacant executive offices, on Friday, July 26, 2024, another sitting was held and the above agendas were attended to.
The house inaugurated 6 interim co-opted members from 100, 200 and 300 level.
Opeyemi Abigail and Saheed Mubarak Arinola from 100 level constituency; Uche Chukwuebuka Anthony and Oluwagbemi Adedun Gloria from 200 level constituency; Olafusi Ebenezer and Adigun Boluwatilewato from 300 level constituency. No candidate was presented by 400 level due to lack of proper communication.
These interim co-opted members do not have voting rights in the house only speaking rights. They are involved in the decision making process as the house feels that just 7 people cannot be making decisions for over 250 NAPSites.
Further into the sitting, the candidates for the vacant executive positions were presented to the house.
After rigorous screening, Onasanwo Adetomiwa, a 200 level student was appointed as the Public Relations Officer (PRO) and Adekunle Olamilekan Wasiu, a 300 level student was appointed Sports Director of the association.
Upon enquiry, it was gathered that a Bye-election was not conducted because there is no provision for it in the constitution and how vacant executive positions after the general election are filled is solely at the discretion of the LRC.
