the NICESA EDUCATIONAL SECTOR in order to producing qualitative and unique

graduates who will graduate with the vision of been versatile in the working industry

in terms of production. It is known in the country today that most of the equipment’s

Affiliations, we have decided to repackage our outfits in all gathering we engage

in, thereby coming out in colorful NICESA outfits, well composed and behaved.

RESOLUTION

We crave the indulgence of the leadership of NICE to create a Bank account for NICESA and

also review a percentage of the Students MRF (Membership Registration Fee) that should be

paid into the said account. This will in no small measure, drive the National Executives of

NICESA to engage her Chapters into massive Registration which will in turn generate Internal

Revenue for NICESA in order not to be totally financially dependent on NICE thereby

reducing frequent disturbance.

Furthermore, Zonal Coordinators were appointed by NICESA National Coordinator in agreement with the National Executive Council to oversee the affairs of NICESA in the various zones of the nation due to their efforts in ensuring the growth of NICESA. Those include:

Ogbonna Stephen - South-South Zone Ifeanyi Okpala - South-West Zone

We do appreciate the fund released for NICESA during the Conference but you’ll agree with

us that it wasn’t enough as we tasked ourselves to realize our Aims, Visions and Objectives.

In that note, Just like Oliver Twist, NICESA asks for more.

Find attached, papers presented during the Conference.

Thanks in anticipation of your positive and fast response.
