Students of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic (MAPOLY) on Monday staged a peaceful walk ahead of the much-anticipated homecoming concert of Nigerian music star, Zlatan Ibile, in a show of unity, discipline, and commitment to peaceful coexistence within the institution.
The peace walk, which was led by the Students’ Union Government under the leadership of Comrade Temitope Afolabi (BIG AFO) AND RT. Hon Ademolu Toheeb (HORLAGOLD) , was organized by students of the polytechnic to formally reassure the management of the institution that the forthcoming event would be peaceful, orderly, and free from any form of disruption.
The students, dressed in coordinated outfits and carrying placards with messages promoting peace, unity, and responsible conduct, marched through the campus and proceeded to the management area where they were received by the institution’s leadership, ably led by Arch. Dr. Babatunde Jolaoso.
According to the Students’ Union leadership, the walk was not just a symbolic gesture, but a deliberate effort to demonstrate that MAPOLY students are committed to maintaining peace before, during, and after the Zlatan homecoming concert.
The union explained that the initiative was designed to build confidence among the management, staff, students, and the wider community that the event would be conducted in a calm and respectable atmosphere.
