Meet the secretary-general of the Unam SRC

I was elected mid-February when we had bi-elections for the vacant positions. One of the main reasons I contested was because I have a heart for student affairs and I felt 2017 was the year I was going to make myself available to serve the students of the university.My motto for my campaign was 'Together We Can', derived and inspired by the Democrat leadership of Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama whose mottos were, “Stronger Together” and “Yes We Can” respectively. In addition, I ended my manifesto by reminding the students that: “Their vote is their choice, their choice is their voice and I am their voice so they should go out there and let their voices be heard. 'After being elected as the SG of Unam, I had to surrender my roles as the vice president of the Model United Nations Society which is a new society established on campus and the training officer for the University of Namibia Debating Society in accordance with requirement of being an ordinary member of the society if one is a member of the SRC and to avoid conflict of interest. Firstly, the theme for the 2017 SRC Council is: “Let the student voices be heard,” therefore, I am sure I am speaking for all my council members when I say that this is our motivation in decision-making and trendsetting, to let the student voices be heard.“My role is practically being the engine of the SRC, meaning, I keep up to date with the day-to-day tasks and portfolios of my team. In addition, I am in the chief administrator of the SRC. I chair our council meetings and take minutes of all meetings and events for record purposes and for reference in case we want to double check what we have agreed upon. In addition, I also help the vice president in terms of coordinating our team administration at Unam main campus. I recently successfully held the General Student Assembly which was held on 29 March. The General Student Assembly is the highest student making decision-making body where students come together to engage Unam management and this also a platform where student issues are raised and we, as a council collectively come up with amicable solutions to the pertinent issues raised. The SG is then the master of ceremonies at this event which is hosted twice a year.” Leadership experience-Uitani Childine radio presenter 2008-2012-Debating and Model United Nations chairperson in my matric year-University of Namibia Electoral Commission 2016 -University Of Namibia student assistant 2017-LRC at Windhoek High School 2013 -University of Namibia Debate President 2016 -Model United Nations Vice President 2017-Mr Freshman Finalist 2014 Mr Unam Finalist 2016 and -Currently Mr Photogenic of Unam main campus“How do I manage? “My support system has always been my source of strength. They do all the work behind the scenes, namely my mother, Menesia Muinjo, my father, Benedictus Muinjo and my brother, Kevin Kadhila and also my late sister Nancy Chi-Chi Muinjo who to this day, I look up to so much as the one who shaped my whole life. I come from a family where I am taught to always be humble, keep my feet on the ground and always give it nothing less than your best. All my achievement is all thanks to my Heavenly Father and my family.” *Clinton Fluksman Muinjo is a third-year law student at the University of Namibia.
