IGBAJA CDS
MEETING HELD ON THE 14Th March, 2019.
The CDS
meeting started at 9:45 am with NYSC anthem and the opening prayer was taken by
Corper Ayomide. The last meeting minutes was read by the former General
Secretary (Corper Adeosun Ifeoluwa).
The minute
was adopted by Corper Lateef and Seconded by Corper Fatimah. At 9:53 am, the President
(Corper Thank-God) gave his appreciation speech in which he enlisted the aims
and objectives of the CDS group.
Concerning
the Social media platforms for the CDS group, he mentioned that a telegram
group had been created, a Whatsapp group and a website. He said that for the Whatsapp
group, a bar code had been generated so that there would be no trouble of
adding & omitting anyone as whoever wants to join would only have to scan
the code to join the different groups. He also said that the telegram channel
would basically be for information of the treasury, social events, sport
events, announcement etc. Corper Lateef asked the Social Director what his plans
were for the Send-forth. The Social director (Corper Opeyemi) replied that
there were no funds and he intended to ask the House for a way forward.
Concerning
the projects, The President (Corper Thank-God) listed the projects that the
former executives handed over, which included:
1.
Painting of the
Secretariat.
2.
Erecting and
Renovation of the Flag post.
3.
Waste Bins at the
market Square.
4.
Painting
Signboard at Roadside.
5.
Toilet Renovation
at the Secretariat.
6.
Renovation of Bus
stop.
The President
(Corper ThankGod) said that it would be better to carry out one project at a
time. Corper Ephraim said the toilet renovation was more essential, Corper
Fatimah said the signpost was important, Corper Opeyemi said we should actually
work with the smallest projects and then stretch mto the highest.
The
President (Corper ThankGod) asked the house to give us names of persons whom
they feel could support the projects. Corper Blessing elaborated further on the
importance. Corper Ephraim requested that we start with our PPA�s first.
Moving further
to the announcements, The CDS president announced that,
�
ECWA Secondary
School invited the corpers to their interhouse sports event. He thereby
requested for delegates, to represent us at the event.
�
The stage play
called �Afesona� which would be holding at ECWA Igbaja on the 24th
of March, 2019 and we were all invited, with the time of the event slated for
4:30 pm.
�
He announced the
hosting of Ex-Corps members (Batch A, 2018) by Mama ECWA.
�
On the issues of
Dues, He encouraged the Corpers to endeavour to pay their dues as it would
really help us to organise a send forth for the next outgoing set (Batch B
stream 1, 2018) and also, if we pay our dues, we would have money for occasional
refreshment during CDS.
The Treasurer (Corper Adeosun Ifeoluwa) encouraged the house
to be deliberate about paying their dues that it would be documented
appropriately to avoid confusion.
The President
(Corper ThankGod) talked about the buying and sharing of meat and the benefits
of coming together to do such. Corper Lateef asked how the sharing would be
done accurately when people pay differently. The president (Corper ThankGod)
gave him his assurances that it would be accurately done, and that everybody
involved would be satisfied with the different portions before blind papers
would be drawn.
A. O.
B
Corper
Opeyemi asked what were the actions towards late coming and absenteeism. The President
(Corper ThankGod) said, it had been an issue, and that himself and the excos
had been deliberating on, since it would be unfair to collect money from
latecomers and let absentees go free. So instead of query for those absent, we
should see how to collect money from absentees rather than query as it will be
a form of income generation.
Concerning
the Send forth for Batch B, Stream 1 and Stream 2 (2018), the Social director
(Corper Opeyemi) suggested that the Corpers who would be passing out should
make efforts for weekly contribution to make for a colourful event. He didn�t
give a definite amount but suggested the amount be decided by them.
Corper Wunmi
asked if the CDS group is still on Sanitation and Environmental Protection, and
to which the President (Corper ThankGod) replied Yes.
In addition
to the Send forth, Corper Lateef requested that the decision for the amount to
be made for the Sendforth be moved to the next CDS for others to be aware.
Corper
Ifeoluwa said she noticed that the CDS attendance was small and she wondered
what was happening. The President (Corper ThankGod) in his reply said that,
they would visit some of those absent to know about their welfare and to let
them know we care.
The motion
for adjournment was moved by Corper Ephraim and Seconded by Corper Opeyemi. The
Closing prayer was led by Corper Lateef Adepoju.
In Closing
the NYSC Anthem was Sang.
