It also questioned why the campaign's Director-General had ...

  By Victor Olubiye OGM, one of the presidential aspirants in the 2026/2027 OSPOLY Students’ Union election, has responded to criticism from supporters of fellow aspirant MUSLAT, days before students are expected to cast their votes.

By Victor Olubiye OSPOLY presidential race is getting hotter, and supporters of presidential aspirant MUSLAT are asking students to look beyond campaign promises and examine the leadership experience of the candidates seeking to lead the institution. At the centre of their argument is OGM, whose previous association with Koko Campus has become a talking point among MUSLAT supporters ahead of the election. Their message is simple: if a leader could not deliver the kind of leadership they expected at Koko Campus, should students hand over the larger responsibility of Main Campus to the same person? According to the supporters, Koko Campus was given a smaller unit of responsibility, but they believe the campus did not experience the level of impact they expected. They point to what they describe as inadequate projects, welfare concerns and a leadership voice they felt was missing when students needed representation. And now, they are asking OSPOLITES to think beyond friendship, familiarit...
