PROTOCOL,
Fellow Alumni,
Today is a solemn and most momentous occasion; and yet, in the history of our nascent Association, it is becoming a commonplace occurrence.
Today’s ceremony, however, has very special meaning because today we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another – but *marks another opportunity to consolidate on the gains of my first stint as President of this noble Association*.
The giant strides recorded in the first term speak eloquently and convey an exponential expression of the imminent deliverables this leadership will bring. The vision has always been to give back to our alma mater and society in general.
What truly matters is not who controls our government of Crutech Alumni Association but that this government is controlled by the people. This administration shall remain accessible to all an sundry in our quest for charting a new course for this noble Association.
At the centre of this movement is a crucial certitude – that Crutech Alumni Association exists to serve its members and alma mater.
The time for empty talk is over, now arrives the hour of action. Aggrieved parties must sheath swords and join this alliance to move this Association forward.
Honesty and hard work, courage and fair play, tolerance curiosity, and loyalty have been the quiet forces of progress throughout our history. We must continue to uphold such precepts jealously.
What is demanded, then, is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility -- a recognition on the part of every Alumnus that we have duties to ourselves, our Association and the world; duties that we do not reluctantly accept, but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so gratifying to the spirit and defining of our character than giving our all to a arduous assignment.
The time is indeed come for Crutech Alumni Association, as fledgling as its seems, to begin to justify its existence through tangible evidences and members' welfare as priorities.
In doing so, this leadership will seek to *complete the ongoing CRUTECH Alumni Centre Phase One; SIWES Placement of our Students Today, Alumni Tomorrow; Human Capital Development of our Alumni Members through job placement and entrepreneurship; advance linkages* with corporate bodies and philanthropists.
Our leadership will also look up to *building greater synergy, partnership and collaboration with donor agencies and development partners; aggressively pursue infrastructural development of our alma mater; create awareness campaigns against CRUTECH Land Encroachment; awareness campaigns against cultism and other vices that debase the moral fabric* of society on our campuses; integrate Alumni members into micro and macro governances at all levels; and advocate for greater funding of Research and Development (R&D) of our alma mater in collaboration with renowned Research Institutions.
Daunting as these may seem, if we can come together and unify our individual strengths towards the collective course of Crutech Alumni Association, I assure you that all these and more can be achieved.
As we begin this journey together, I pledge our allegiance the Crutech Alumni Association and promise to remain exemplary art all time, as I re-echo the words of Chimaroke Nnamani, when he said: *"a leader is not just he who pontificate on worthless ethical platitudes, but he, who by palpable example, lives and acts in line with precepts at all times."*
