The Federation of Otan-Ile Students (FOSU) is set to officially launch the first edition of Afole Magazine, marking a major milestone after many years of proposals and unrealized plans by previous administrations. The initiative, which has long been anticipated within the student community, is now taking shape under the leadership of the Acting President, Oloye Gbenga Oluranti Olaleye.

In a formal announcement released from the Office of the President, FOSU inaugurated the Afole Magazine 1.0 Edition Committee, a team entrusted with laying the constitutional and governance foundation for the magazine’s development and long-term sustainability.

According to the President, the committee members were selected based on their “integrity, competence, and dedication to the growth of Afole Magazine.” The team includes:

  • Mr. Adeosun Kehinde – Editor-in-Chief, Copy & Proof Editor
  • Mr. Ogunfeyitimi Ojo – Deputy Editor
  • Comr. Sumbade Saudiq – Secretary
  • Hon. Olaleye Olayemi Marvellous – Managing Editor
  • Owoeye Eunice Yetunde – Member
  • Comr. Boluwatife Adeola – Member
  • Ogundeji Olajumoke – Member
  • Barr. Banji Otegbayo – Editorial Adviser
  • Asiwaju Oluwatosin Oke – Editorial Adviser
  • Oloye Gbenga Oluranti Olaleye – President

President Olaleye emphasized that the committee’s primary role is to “review, refine, and establish the constitutional and governance framework that will guide the operation and future of Afole Magazine.” He further encouraged the members to carry out their duties with diligence, unity, and a commitment to excellence.

The launch of Afole Magazine represents a significant step in documenting the experiences, achievements, and culture of Otan-Ile students.

With the newly constituted committee now at work, FOSU says it is confident that the magazine will not only serve its immediate purpose but also become an enduring legacy for future generations.

The President expressed optimism about the committee’s forthcoming recommendations, stating that their work will shape the foundation of the publication “for years to come.”

The student community and the town at large now await the debut edition of Afole Magazine, expected to become a landmark in FOSU’s history and a testament to years of persistence and renewed leadership.
