“In 2010, we started to accept external students and this year, the fact that 90 percent of our intakes came from outside makes it imperative for effective leadership among students. The caliber of members underscores the importance of the student council”, he said.

The council, Prof Chinedu added, serves as a bridge between the students and the management of Covenant University.

The Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Prof Taiwo Abioye, who reeled out the names of members of the student council, charged members to remember the university’s core values while carrying out their responsibilities and prayed they do not disappoint themselves.
