The H.O.D
Distinguished Professor,
Our World Class Lectures,
My Fellow Students,
Ladies and Gentlemen,

I would like to begin by saying that it has been a great privilege to me to have been given the opportunity to serve the association.

Looking back in the past 12 months, it has been an exceptionally busy year. We have had to deal with a rapid succession of important events and situations, many of which are still unfolding. Indeed, for me, personally, it has been a most eventful period throughout, at times challenging but on the whole a most rewarding experience.  

Today, it is not my intention to list out all that we have accomplished. I believe they speak for themselves. But rather, I would like to take this opportunity to briefly offer some of my impressions on how things have fared in the work of the my fellow Exco's.

In face of crisis situations, the Exco's has shown that, whenever there is a unity of purpose and the strive for consensus, we have the capacity to act to address these situations in a timely and constructive manner. But still, we need to do more.

Our engagement must be more than just a one shot exercise. We need to ensure that the common resolve that we have expressed are followed up with concrete actions, so as to produce meaningful impacts on the ground, and make a difference.

Another positive development that I have witnessed is the stronger and more active engagement within the Exco's through the intensification of consultation and consensus building.

Let me conclude on a note of thanks.

• I would like to, first of all, express my debt of gratitude to my  team- for the great teamwork and for their invaluable support and advice throughout.

• I would also like to pay tribute to all Lectures, for supporting us, right from day one of this administration.

• My appreciation also goes to the to leaders whose efforts day in and day out have kept the wheel running smoothly in the association.

• Most importantly, I would like to thank all my colleagues, and all the members of AMATECH LASU, as well as all stakeholders for the confidence and trust that you have placed in me and it has been my privilege and honor for me to have worked closely with all of you throughout the year.

Thank you.
OBASHOLA M. AYOMIDE.
