Speaking during the training, the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Kiama, expressed his commitment to supporting and working closely with the UNSA leaders. He pledged to assist them in fulfilling their plans and delivering on the promises made to the University of Nairobi students. The Dean of Students, Mr. Johnson Kinyua, reassured the elected leaders of his unwavering support throughout their leadership journey. "I will closely work with you to ensure that you deliver and work efficiently, and I will be readily available to mentor you and provide leadership advice where necessary," Mr. Kinyua affirmed.

In his mandate, the newly elected UNSA President, Rocha Madzao, outlined his plans and expectations, setting a clear agenda for his leadership tenure. He emphasized the importance of accountability and inclusivity and urged all stakeholders to uphold their commitments to achieve collective success.
