HIGHLY- ANTICIPATED FEMALE FOOTBALL COMPETITION IN FOOTBALL COMPETITION, PROMOTING INCLUSIVITY AND INSPIRING CHANGE

Sport, particularly football, is immensely powerful. It connects people of different political and religious backgrounds, forcing otherwise separate groups of people to come together for a common cause.

Women's football provides a space for people who want to express themselves and be a part of a global community. Everyone who wants to play a sport deserves to do so with confidence and someone to look up to.

The NAPAS (National Association of Public Administratio Students) 's director of sports (Gbolahan Babatunde Junior) has decided to finally bring to light the eagerly anticipated female football competition in the department. He has been a man to start so many things, such as the NAPAS marathon and NAPAS games, under the auspicious leadership of Madam President(Odejide Anuoluwapo Janet). One can't help but trust in him to deliver this time. The previous director of socials also had a plan to bring this to light but couldn't, so all bets are on the current director to deliver.

The competition hopes to be the highlight of the HOD CUP competition, and the winners will surely be remembered for a long time, setting the pace for precedence. So, who will take it home? Will it be the class of Undaunted, the class of Hypatios, the class of Polyhistor, or the class of Convalis?

Raising awareness of the important roles females play in sports will help change attitudes and beliefs. For this, we want to appreciate the efforts of the director of sports and the sports committee for their impact thus far.

The delay in distribution had already raised eyebrows, with students, especially freshers , growing restless after months of waiting. Expectations were high. But when the Financial Secretary, through the Public Relations Officer (PRO), invited students to the Departmental President’s office for collection, the excitement fizzled into frustration. Present at the collection point were the Financial Secretary, the PRO, and the General Secretary. For stalites , the package consisted of just one item: a department-branded crest. “It’s not just about getting something it’s about getting something useful,” said Oluwatobiloba, a Part 3 student...

“Indefinite Suspension.” “Impeached.” “Removed.” — Yesterday’s Sitting Was No Joke!

By Public Voice News Agency The NAPAS parliamentary chamber roared back into activity on what should have been a quiet afternoon, as the legislative arm of the association met for what turned out to be a gripping session of debates, decisions, and disciplinary actions. The sitting, scheduled for 3:00 PM, officially began at 3:54 PM with an opening prayer led by the PLO, followed by a solemn rendition of the Great Ife Anthem. The reading of the last sitting’s minutes by the Clerk of the House marked the formal opening. The motion for adoption was moved by Hon. Kanmi and seconded by the Speaker, setting the stage for what would become a drama-filled sitting.
