When the call for us all to converge at different locations of the world to inaugurate a chapter, branch thereby creating a global network of our highly esteemed alumni. We are currently putting machinery in place to build a robust alumni which will be the pride of all at the end of the day.

Part of what we will be looking at amongst our modus operandi is to develop programs that will center around;

Gathering for our Alma mata Demonstration Secondary School, ABU Samaru Zaria.

Gathering for the welfare of the women & men that spent their time, energy & passion teaching and moulding us into what most us are today ie our teachers in their old age.

Gathering for the welfare of our members.

Creating the atmosphere for bonding & networking thereby assisting members to Leverage various connections that will ideally will cost us an arm and a leg to have.

And finally achieving all these in an atmosphere of fun and warmth.

Fisayo  Arowosegbe , Kudi Olobayo and Femi Obagboye sent apologies for not attending the meeting. Orighoye Edukugho was in attendance for the first time and was welcomed.   Moji Badmus  promised to be around for our next meeting.
Due to the fuel crises issues that affected the country earlier in the year, we could not hold meeting in January, February too was another busy month for most of our members. Hence there was no meeting held.
Jumoke Olayemi was present. She resides in Australia and works with Department of Education. John Ojuola informed us of Jumoke’s father’s death. The reason she came to Nigeria was for her father’s burial. Segun Daramola spoke  on behalf of DEMOSA Lagos.
Segun Daramola still laid emphasis’ on the need to be in touch with one another and continue to build a stronger relationship with our individual families as it is, with other Old School Alumni that have strong footing. We don’t pray for any unforeseen situation for any one of us but if it eventually happens, we need to assist ourselves. It could be in cases where one needs to change job, medical expenses, etc
Segun discussed with our doctor, Fisayo Ojo about Mohammed Afegbua- Goggles’s vision problem and what we can do to assist him. We will get the details when Fisayo Ojo is around.    We need to assist ourselves at our points of need he said.
The issue of whether the time for our meeting should be changed  so as to enable other members to be present was raised. Ninma Apim and John Ojuola agreed that the last Sunday of the month earlier scheduled is still the best time for our meeting. Officers should be appointed to hold post in trust and coordinate affairs of DEMOSA Lagos state. John Ojuola was appointed PRO, Bola Olanrewaju as acting Secretary. Ninma Apim has created a blog as agreed at our last meeting for DEMOSA. The address is demosa–lagos.blogspot.com
Segun asked Jumoke Olayemi what she can do for us. Since information is power, we need to know the opportunities available for us as Nigerians in Australia in their Educational sector.  She explained that, there is opportunity for International student who are interested in vocational training. The students are trained for two years after which they can apply for permanent residency and they will be given. There are few people there who are from Nigeria.
Ninma works with standard oganisation of Nigeria (SON) and he expressed his intention to establish a company of his own. John Ojuola with his contacts has agreed to assist him with some of his  links.
Orighoye’s field is reaching out to street children and reinstating them back to  normal life. If we have anybody close to us, or anyone we know that needs Orighoye’s assistance we can simply reach  him for necessary details.
With time we shall save ourselves the idea of getting together every last Sunday of each month with the aid of Information Technology when we are fully established. Our coming to gather now once a mouth is not a bad idea either. In view of this a BB group has been set up to remind ourselves of things that need be done. Its tagged (DEMOSA GROUP) the pin is 311BACEB. We are enjoined to invite as many members of Demosa as possible to join the group.
The next meeting is scheduled to hold on the 29th of April, 2012
John Ojuola moved the motion for adjournment of the meeting, Bola seconded the motion.
Ninma Apim said the closing prayers.

The meeting started by 4pm with prayers said by Fisayo Arowosegbe and she also read the minute of the last meeting held 27th November,2011.

The names of all that were present at the meeting were not included. This observation was made known by Bola Olanrewaju. She too adopted the minute while Segun Daramola seconded.

Kudi Olobayo sent apology for not attending the meeting so also did Segun Kolawole, Bukky Dada, Mohammed Afegbua and Victor Buoro. Fisayo Ojo was in attendance for the first time and she was welcomed.

Segun Daramola thanked and is grateful to God Almighty for our existence till now. He still lay emphasis that the coming together of the Old Students of Demonstration Secondary School is not one person’s idea. It is good to keep up the good relationship we all started with a long time ago and continue to build on it. This will continue to keep us together, Segun said. He also mentioned that since we are all specialized and from different fields of life now, we will learn and benefit from each other at different times and levels. He further said that it will not be a bad idea at all if we build a Blog for DEMOSA. As this will be another way of bringing more of our Old Students together. Segun further urge us that by the next meeting we should try to get in touch with other Old Students that are not yet aware of the existence of DEMOSA and we make sure we invite them to come so we can have a full house. Ninma Apim assured us that he will assist with building of the Blog for DEMOSA before the next meeting.

Fisayo Ojo added that we should be in touch with one another. By doing this, we will continue to build up the Association and keep it alive. She also suggested that we should create activities that will assist and be of help to us. Activities like inviting people from different fields of life to have a talk with us. In this respect, Fisayo Arowosegbe introduced an organization called TASLY WORLD NIGERIA COMPANY LIMITED to us. This organization’s concern is health. Segun told her to discuss it with our Doctor in the house, Fisayo Ojo, about all necessary details since its her field so that a conclusion can be reached about inviting them over to talk to us concerning our health.

Segun made it clear that there will be need to assist our Alma-mata. As we know that certain professional bodies cannot advertise their service that is why, there is the need to have people on ground to serve as intermediary to keep us informed about happenings in the school. This brought in the matter concerning the amount we shall be contributing. Fisayo Ojo suggested we start with something no matter how small for now then we can later decide when we have more members on how much that befits us to contribute monthly. A bank account shall be opened in the name of DEMOSA Lagos State Chapter.  Three appointed members shall be signatories to the account before money can be released for the purpose it is meant for.

Bola Olanrewaju asked if Abuja Chapter held their meeting as scheduled. Segun confirmed saying yes but nothing was pasted on Facebook as we did during our first meeting. He got in touch with other chapters encouraging them to start something as well.

The Logo issue was also raised by Segun. Two or three different Logos should be designed from which the very best that befits DEMOSA will be chosen.

John Ojuola urged us all to be punctual so we can leave on time because of those that come from far distances.

The next meeting is scheduled to hold on the 29th of January 2012

Ninma Apim moved the motion for adjournment of the meeting, John seconded the motion.
