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.

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...

Budget Showdown at NAPAS: President Storms Out, Returns to Face Apology Standoff

The parliamentary sitting of the National Association of Public Administration Students (NAPAS), OAU, on November 15, 2024, was one for the books.
