Where did we go wrong as students of the 21st century Ghana 🇬🇭?

 


Where did we go wrong as students of the 21st century in Ghana 🇬🇭?

In the last 3 to 5 decades, we had student leadership strong as the hippo, brave as the lion and wise as the parrot which was vocal, competent and cunning and fought for the interest and welfare of the general student populace.

Today, where are the NUGs, USAG, TTAG, the SRCs, GNUPs, TUSAGs and the likes? Indeed gone are the days where student leadership meant politics; student activism. When student leaders meant well for their members. Where struggles and toils were exchanged for prizes and awards, not cash and cheques and visa or master cards.

Yesterday was bright. Today ought to be brighter and tomorrow must be the brightest. Calm your nerves down, never be perturbed we are here to fight for you. 

"Good name is better than riches". I prefer learning how to fish to fishing for. We fish for fish. The ultimate prize one is paid for is incumbent on the service he or she renders. We should learn to serve rather than to the lord. Service pays more than lordship. 

My dear students worry no more! We shall break the shackles of poor leadership. No one is born with a silver spoon in his or her mouth. Get inspired, be encouraged and motivated and work harder. Hard work and loyalty reward more. These earn you fame, acknowledgement and admonishments. Be determined and committed, work hard and be generous and hospitable, you shall climb to the crest of the mountain.

Fellows! We are here to let you feel belonging. See to it that we all move along; no one is left behind. Let's be greater together!

NUGs, USAG, TTAG, GNUPS, TUSAG, SRCs would be great again!!!

An Open letter to Lawyer Edudzi Tamekloe

Dear Lawyer Edudzi Kudzo Tameklo I wish you a happy and prosperous new year. First of all, let me on behalf of the Tertiary Education Institutions Network, polling agents and party foot soldiers and the grassroots thank you for your support, guindance and direction, most essentially those you foot their bills and pay thier fees. They are extremely grateful and proud of you. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that, numerous others; including myself had fulfilled our obligations or responsibilities as National Service Personnel, and we look forward to be engaged in order to contribute our quotas to nation building and development. You are one of the few Chief Executive Officers who understands the importance of deployment of the youth in public service, that is in line with the core vision of John Dramani Mahama and the National Democratic Congress. I urge you to consider most of our grassroots who are frustrated and stranded as a result of consequential unemployment issu...

​_Press Release_ _*Educate Africa Institute; EAI*_ 10th October, 2022. *The NCA must take proactive measures because some media outlets continue to air unethical and unlawful programs on their shows. - S.K OFORI; EAI Political Analyst* The eleven-year-old boy's death in Kasoa, where his pals planned to sacrifice him for money rituals, was the catalyst for the national media commission's and national communication authority decision to sanitize the media community, which took place just one and a half years earlier. The NCA's decision to revoke the licenses of media outlets transmitting unethical programs was praised by many. It seems, however, that the NCA took such steps in response to the death of the eleven-year-old child who was murdered by his peers under the influence of a mallam. The media outlets whose licenses were eventually restored after negotiations with the national communications authority. After the NCA restoring the license of the affected media outlets, so...
