MSSN, Muslim Leaders Hold Retreat, Develop 15-year Strategic Plan

The National Executive Council (NEC) of the Muslim Students‘ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) has developed a 15-year strategic blueprint for bolstering the vision and key objectives of the organisation.

Speaking at a four-day national retreat organised and hosted by the 38th National Executive Council (NEC) of MSSN in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State capital, the National Amir of the Muslim Students‘ Society of Nigeria, Mustapha Tajudeen Olumide, said the retreat was aimed at propelling the society‘s new executive officers to excellence in service delivery.

The retreat, held between January 30th and February 2nd, 2025, was attended by about 50 participants, including members of the 38th National Executive Council (NEC), the immediate past 37th NEC members, several distinguished personalities, and notable past leaders of the society.

He said, “The retreat allowed us to remind ourselves that the strength of our tomorrow is rooted in the depth of our vision today. The retreat is essential for us as new executives because by imbibing the spirit of excellence, we can build on the good legacies of our founders and past leaders.

This 15-year strategic blueprint is a product of robust brainstorming sessions during the four-day retreat. It will propel our society towards excellence and empower our members to become beacons of hope and agents of positive change in their communities.

„To my dear MSSN members, I want to assure you that our best days are ahead. As we navigate the challenges of our time, let us hold on to our values of faith, knowledge, and service. We will build a brighter future for ourselves, our communities, and our nation. Let us march forward with confidence, courage, and conviction.“

Distinguished resource personnel who delivered lectures and speeches during the retreat included Prof. Oladosu Afeez, Mallam Umaru Larat Aliyu, Prof. Adamu Aliyu, Prof. Adam S. Olatunji, Dr Shehu Ahmad, Mr Moruff Adenekan, and Dr Hadiyatullah Ajao.
