Very soon our university will be witnessing a Guild leadership handover. When it happens, it will be the 27th function of its kind. I have been serving with the outgoing team as MP School of Journalism, and Minister of Information. As such, I have the burden to share a few notes with the 27th Guild leadership to help them serve the university better. I seek to give this advice because I, my colleagues, and those who served before us hold a unique position since we have completed the same journey you are about to begin. We have knowledge to share both from the things we did right and from the mistakes we made.

We have all gone through grief at a certain point in our lives, be it the loss of a loved one, divorce, or the sudden end of a relationship, among others. This will require us to go in for counseling or therapy as a way to recover from this situation.
As the year nears its end, the 1st of December is here for us to be joyful. As many of our friends are filling the chat rooms with happy new month wishes, I will fill yours with a bit of awareness. It’s World AIDS Day!
