In
order to become great you ought to start from somewhere. that is why at
the lowest level of education(k-12 levels) we have class prefects then
to school prefects, as you climb higher the educational levels more
responsibilities comes with the power you have as a student leader.
A leader must be visionary and not just make followers but rather produce more leaders, this a quality of a good leader.
what
do we see in our student leadership nowadays, the campaign to fight
corruption in my humble opinion should start from students leadership.
why am i saying so the political leaders all came out from our various
educational institutions where they build their political career through
student leadership, in that sense to be able to combat corruption we
must start from the root source.
let's
get back to our discussion on students leadership. it is a good thing
for students to aspire for leadership roles in our various institutions
as this intends build them up academically, socially and in all sphere
of life.
Then
the question pops up : is the motive for establishing student
leadership still relevant? one school of thought will say yes because
students are managing their affairs whiles there is another school of
thought that thinks otherwise in the sense that, either the leadership
is working for school administration which is some how fair enough or
working for themselves as in the the leadership against the core mandate
to work for the students.
One
notice trend we can see is who are the candidates going for the
leadership positions : handsome or beautiful, intelligent and popular,
influence or connection they have, you just name them and when they
manage to get to the vetting that is why it all start "nightmare or
greatness".
you
will notice that school administration would love to have a student
leadership that they can manipulate in terms of having the student
leadership working for them so at the vetting you will see that
candidate students perceive will work for them and fight for their needs
will be evicted strategically to enable the controllable candidate pass
the vetting. so in this type of student leadership you will notice that
all the policy they will roll out won't favor students and when school
administration rolls out policy that victims students they won't
advocate for students, here the students are left helpless and all they
could do is pray for their term of leadership to end.
Then
in comes the student leadership that work for themselves as in the
executives benefiting, under this leadership they pretend to be working
for students but in real fact their are just using the students to front
their greedy deeds. and this type of leadership when they leave office
acquire lots of properties ranging from vehicles to monies.
imagine
paying an s.r.c dues of Ghana cedis seventy and all that you get is an
8gig pen drive which not all are up to the 8gig not all are working and
on top of that too you won't provide it for all students and when
students complain you give them beautiful excuses, you are mesmerized
when a huge bus is purchase at an inflated cost failing to meet the
requirements you give (air condition, well spaced, smooth ride) only for
the bus to arrive and that is the end that bus never made any journey
apart from the sale store to campus. Well as some may say the witches
are at work some see foul play. all work and no play make jack a dull
boy we all recite by heart, once in awhile we must entertain ourselves
to release stress from the tight academic work. then you plan a week of
celebration which students even don't know when,where and what event
took place but money are spent and those suppose to benefit don't get
anything to climax it is to bring an artist who will perform under five
minutes and drives home with a senior lecturers life savings as
performance fees prior to that are poor organization of the event
fueling students anger making them destroy properties and you think you
aren't to be blame, i guess we all deserve share in the blame.
Now
that another student leadership is near, will history or tradition
repeat itself or there will be restoration to the original motive?
we
all have a role to play and you must play yours well so we don't come
and start asking where did we go wrong again.

#CodeChallenge : dare the un-dared
Just occurred to me why not put this concept to reality, after all learning is at it's peak when done through fun.
how best are your codes?
and your coding language is what?
all you have to do is challenge a friend to this questions.
All got you got to do is write your code in any language of your choice then challenge a friend to it.
#CodeChallenge
imagine
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int a;
int b;
cout<<"b= name of friend you challenge"<<endl;
cin>>b
if(a=your codes in any language){
cout<<"a=yours codes"<<endl;}
}
sounds simple right just wait until you are challenged there you will see codes of codes.
