Unity Schools Old Students' Association USOSA is the umbrella body of all Federal Government (Girl's)Colleges. It is countdown to the 2016 Annual General Meeting in Lagos and who better to write to members than the President-General?
Dear USOSAN,
On behalf of all the organs of USOSA, let me welcome you to the unique experience of #USOSAAGM2016. I want to thank you for taking the time to register and be part of this organizing experience. We hope you can also bring along your friends, school mates and set mates and share this message with as many of them as possible. Please encourage them to register. It will help us with planning. We hope that you also use the official hashtag for the event ‘#USOSAAGM2016’ across social media platforms to help in increasing awareness for the AGM.
The AGM is a statutory obligation. It is an opportunity to take stock and renew our association, its mission, and values. #USOSAAGM2016 coincides with 10 years of our Association. It is a small milestone in what we hope will be many greater milestones to come.
This year’s AGM has had to take place three weeks later than originally scheduled. I wish to apologise most unreservedly for the inconvenience that arose from the change in dates. The deferral was unavoidable, regrettably. We hope nevertheless that your desire to be part of the experience of renewing our organization remains undimmed.
We will meet in Lagos. In keeping with its place as the oldest and most senior in our network, Kings College, Lagos, is the proud host of this year’s AGM. The venue is the Kings College Hall, Main Campus, No. 3 Catholic Mission Street, in Onikan (near Court of Appeal, opposite Race Course), Lagos. A virtual map for access to the venue is available via this link: http://usosaagm.org.ng/venue_a
The broad theme for the AGM remains “Education, National Unity, and Security”. A programme for the AGM has been prepared and will be circulated to you later in the week. In addition to transacting statutory business, we hope to look into the state of our schools generally; the state of education in the parts of the country affected by the insurgency in north-east Nigeria. We hope you will come prepared to take part in and own the deliberations and their outcomes. The draft programme will also shortly be available to be downloaded from the website; www.usosaagm.org.ng
We are gratified by the uptake in registration so far. It shows that there is a new belief in our Association. We will work hard to earn your trust and make #USOSAAGM2016 a memorable experience for you as well as a new direction in how we organize our meetings.
Let me thank you once again for being part of this effort. I look forward to seeing you in #USOSAAGM2016. I wish you safe travels to Lagos for the AGM. Please feel free to send all inquiries to usosaagm@gmail.com
Fraternally,
Chidi Anselm Odinkalu
PRESIDENT-GENERAL
