In his address, the National President of NUOLGS, Comr. Sen.

He further appreciated the Executive Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, for his unwavering support for students. The President commended the governor for increasing the state bursary from ₦10,000 to ₦20,000—an act that demonstrates his commitment to educational development.
Comr. Omoleminu also extended profound appreciation to the Executive Chairman of Okitipupa Local Government, describing him as a father figure to the student body. He praised the chairman for consistently opening his doors to students and providing necessary support.
The NUOLGS President congratulated Rt. Hon. Ololade Gbegudu, the Deputy Speaker, for his dedication to youth and student empowerment. He noted that the Deputy Speaker has continually supported numerous students in higher institutions across the state.
He also appreciated the Member representing Okitipupa Constituency 1, Hon. Chris Ayebusiwa, for his visible commitment and support towards student development and welfare.
In his closing remarks, the NUOLGS President appealed to all stakeholders to continue engaging and supporting students. He emphasized the need for open-door policies and called for increased collaboration between students and key government and non-governmental actors.
As student leaders, we are ever ready to work hand-in-hand with stakeholders, government agencies, and relevant bodies to advocate for the best interests of our students,” he stated.
