She congratulated the new student governing council and challenged them to walk the leadership talk based on the training that they undertook. The DVC (AFPD) who also participated had a presentation on University Governance and adequately took through the newly elected leaders on their role on ensuring prudence in University Governance. The elections were conducted in line with the student council constitution and depicted a free and fair process enumerated in chapter 6 of the CUSA constitution. The training covered a wide range of topics including; time management, resource management, coercive and charismatic leadership, conflict resolution, national integration, organization communication, and how to maintain commitment, transparency, and integrity in leadership positions.
