I am in the race for LAWSAN presidency to restore the integrity of LAWSAN

Our team of Reporters caught up with a foremost Presidential Aspirant of LAWSAN, inspite of his busy schedule, he granted us an interview.

read the excerpts.

Who is Inyene John?

Inyene John is just a simple human being, I was born in a quiet Village in Akwa Ibom state and that makes me a Nigerian. I am a Christian. I am presently by the grace of God a final year Law student of the University of Uyo.
Inyene John


Recently, you have become a much-talked about personality in LAWSAN to the extent of almost looking larger than life, what's the secret of your charisma? I mean what makes people like you this much?

Hahahha, I am really humbled to hear that from you, but I am just aware for the first time. I do not think I am anyway close to being larger than  life. I am just someone like any other person, probably, if you say people like me, it can only be because I love people, I really do... I listen to them when they are down and rejoice with them when they are up, that's probably the reason, i do not give up on people,I do not give them money, i do just the little things within my capacity to make them happy,I believe I have been able to grasp the meaning of real happiness by identifying with people, not when you need them but when they need you.

Why are you in the race?

This is a very critical question. Initially, I was not keen about this course, I am a very conservative person. I thought I could hide and make my grades and graduate and become a Lawyer, but I discovered that along the line that people, students are not really satisfied about so many things in LAWSAN and i have this gift of reading questions on people's faces, when I listen to them, I hear words of deep sorrows, sadness and hope regarding LAWSAN. I am not really skilful in boastfulness, but I am in the race for LAWSAN presidency to restore the integrity of LAWSAN, and return the Association to the students. I want to bring back those glory days of LAWSAN grants and academic laurels, not only physical development, but mental revival and excellence.

Many perceive that you do not have a Godfather and as such, you may have financial difficulty.

Hahahha... You know, it is really a funny thing to hear that peopke have Godfathers in Students Associations, it is really really funny. But I want to state here that, i am just a student, and what I have are the students, with the support and protection of God, and the encouragement of my fellow students, I do not think I need any other Godfather. I have discovered that one with God is majority.

Do you do campaign of calumny?

This is a very good question. You know, as a student of law, I know the legal implication of calumny, and will not want to engage in it for whatever reason. As a person, I am guided by the principles of the Christian religion which says "remove the log from your eyes before you see it in the eyes of your fellow man" and as such, I have never indulged in it. However, and as expected in politics, people do it for political reasons. We have heard many demeaning things said against our personalities, but I have always advised that we play according to the rules of honour, having recourse to the fact that, LAWSAN is but a transit camp in out earthly sojourn.
The Prince Relaxing


One last word for LAWSANites

Remain stoic, trust in your dreams, come out en-masse and prove to the world that indeed, in every situation #Godwin.

10 Reasons You Should Vote Iyene John for LAWSAN President



1. INTELLIGENT
In January 2009, Americans were faced with a dilemma of choosing between John McCain, a war hero, who will die for America and Barack Obama, an intelligent youngman who had the answer to the problems of United States of America.. Americans chose Obama, not for the mere fact that he is black, it was because ideas rule the world and at that time, Obama was proffering solutions to the problems America was faced with.

Lawsanites will also chose Inyene because he has the solutions to the numerous problems facing lawsanites especially human capacity development and one most unique trait in him is that he doesn't lack solutions to a problem, if you doubt me, fire him with a hypothetical problem and watch him break it down realistically. His position at the top of his Class is a clear testament to his intelligence. Iyene John is a beacon of hope to countless LAWSANites as he has proven that though money can by grades, it cannot by good brains.

2. HONESTY
One quality that eludes most of the politicians we have in our nation Nigeria, Inyene John is honest to the core. He will always tell you what it is and not what you want to hear, that is why most people like him.

3. APPROACHABLE AND OPTIMISTIC
If a poll should be conducted on which lawsanite is the most approachable, i wouldnt be surprise if Inyene John is at the summit. He is not proud, good at listening, he is always available because he stays in the hostel most times, he relates with everyone very
well because he feels, as a leader he should be a servant and not a BOSS. I like his optimism even when people think there is no hope, he always believes there will be a way.

4. HUMBLE AND CONFIDENT
Humility is his watch word, though he is badly intelligent, he doesn't let that get into his head. Inyene John respects everyone including his different opponents, despite the series of unfair attacks in the form of propagandas he
receives on daily basis.Just like Jesus' disciples, he doesnt allow it to affect who he is-a strong trait of a great leader.

He is also very confident in all his actions and that he will deliver on all his promises.

5. SIMPLICITY
I was fairly young when Barack Obama was doing his campaign to become the President of the United State Of America. The first black man ever to have dared to try that. His campaign slogan 'YES WE CAN' inspired me.

Mc'Cain his opponent, a white man, has a stronghold in Los Angele's which by virtue of its population, was densely populated by the whites, and it was predicted that Obama will lose woefully in Los Angeles.

Probably because Los Angeles was full of rich white folks. Obama courageously mounted the rostrum and in his effort to make his campaign speech he said "Dear country men and women, I have tasted what it feels like to walk 50 miles from my house to school, and I have also had the privilege of driving in porch cars, I think I am balanced to lead both the rich and the poor" immediately after that speech, the scale of voting started increasing, Obama's scale increased and towered above Mc'Cain's.

This young intellectual can be likened to Obama in LA who knows what it feels to trek to school on a sunny day. Inyene John is capable of leading both the rich and the poor

6. STRONG CHARACTER
In the midst of a gentle and meek soul is a very strong character that stands for justice, Inyene John can go to the end of the world and back to see you smile, he makes every LAWSANites problem his own. He is always uncomfortable when a LAWSANite is uncomfortable. I saw this when a colleague of mine approach him based on a missing test result last semester,he provided solutions which was followed and the
issue was resolved.

7. A TRUE CHRISTIAN
A true christian, Inyene John possess all the qualities of a true christian as required by the holy book, his shibboleth is same as God's and above all, he is God fearing.

8. TEACHER
He has worked as a teacher, he is a successful teacher who has all the weaponry in his vessel to quench the fire in LAWSAN and rebrand it, he has the experience to turn the tide,
he knows how to help LAWSANites to improve on their grade, better grades.

9. HARDWORKING AND INDEPENDENT
Inyene John works very hard, we can see that in his grades, he does not give up when it matters most, he is always there for anyone even non-Lawsanites. He is independent because as we all know, he is on his own, no sponsors, no godfather, so he owes his loyalty to no one but God, him and him alone...

10. IDEAS AND COMMITMENT
Ideas they say rules the world, a man sat down and thought about travelling to the moon, he made the necessary device. It was ideas that made that possible, not age or experience. He has little money compared to others but he is loaded with ideas and as we know Ideas rule the world... Inyene John knows how to get things done and not just getting things done, but in the right way and manner...His commitment to his life ideals and ideas is second to none.

The best hand to leave LAWSAN in!!!...and one more thing,he is always happy and smiles alot # lols ...maybe because he knows God will never let him down because his plans for LAWSAN are genuine!!!

Uwemedimo Dominic (Deity) gives LAWSAN a timely warning

Deity Warns LAWSANites against perjury.

The ferocious and intrepid Activist in University of Uyo and Chief Press Secretary to the 2014/2015 LAWSAN Government Uwemedimo Dominic (Paapa Akpan) has issued out a timely warning to those seeking elective offices in LAWSAN and threatens to re-awaken the LAWSAN High Court from its current state of doldrums in a move he described as helping the Federal government fight impunity by instituting action against those who will lie under oath before standing election.

In a statement which the foremost Activists released 13/1/2016 which he titled "LAWSAN, ATTENTION! BEFORE THE ELECTION" admonished political desperados in the Faculty vying to contest an election in LAWSAN to "open a LAWSAN Constitution as a matter of legal duty to check and be sure that he has the Constitutional requirements in terms of CGPA to stand for their respective offices before they purchase forms."

If there is anything this no nonsense activist is known for is that he does not issue out empty threats. It can be recalled that in this 2015/2016 session, he dragged the College of ClassReps to court for what he perceived as usurpation of the powers of the Vice President.

He craved the indulgence of his colleagues (memners of his Constituency) to pay particular attention as they will not be shielded from prosecution if they are found wanting.
