I Foresee Brighter Prospects in Asumadu & Ndukwe led Administration

The prospects of Asumadu and Wisdom Ndukwe led administration has been the one that many students anticipate. However long it takes, the mandate has been been given to them. 

Upon resumption to office, we have seen their Swift intervention in organising a meeting with the sellers at the Lecturers and staff markets ( Night Market) discussing the recent hikes in commodity prices. The recent increase in consumables and foodstuff is alarming, unwarranted and worrying. We cannot fathom why every blessed day's provisions prices are inflating. Extorsions at diaspora halls are uncalled for and not guaranteed. We are keenly aware of their intervention, and hoping that the Asumadu- Ndukwe led governance would expedite the unfailing effort to deal with such menace confronting us.

Indeed, governance is continuous we have seen that the duo has taken the trend of mobilising students for a seminar. This has been a programme that virtually every administration embarks on to sensitize students on matters of concern. I don't want to believe if that is a budget target expedition to meet their budget expectations by soliciting sponsorship for such programmes.

In the week, we have witnessed several reshufflings just a few weeks since the whistleblower 360 published the news item about the humble appeal to the USRC President to embark on the reshuffling of Committee heads.

Notwithstanding the appointments, I would like to bring to their attention for them to take notice that there are no committees available; be they a standing or Adhoc committees. No single individual had been appointed as a committee member. I believe that should be done following the appointments of deputy committee heads. The leadership of the UGSRC should also take notice of the appointment being a virtually one-sided appointment. 

Per the timeframe, it would be extremely difficult for this administration to meet its demands and expectations since the first semester is at its apogee. Many level three hundred students are expressing their interest to run for the position of the SRC, while JCR elections and departmental elections are currently ongoing. They have one semester more to go. 

Despite the frustrations and anxiety characterised by the elections and swearing-in, there is hope for students. 

We wouldn't want to demand more from them. What we expect is that they should fulfil their promises and account for their stewardship at the end of their tenure. Responsibility and accountability are what we shall demand at the end of their tenure. 

A blend of leadership should come with unique ideas and opportunities. If they should fail it would serve as a bad precedent and an adventure that no student will be willing to embark on. That precedent will be an unprofitable and unlucrative venture for students to follow. 

One most welcoming idea that I support and would embark on in the future is the "SRC Digital Communication Module" dubbed " The SRC This Week" aimed at bringing the accountability gap between the SRC and the student; as well as bringing the SRC to the doorsteps of the students.

If the promises are fulfilled, there will be a light at the end of the tunnel.

The 24 Hour Economy Proposed by Mahama; NPP's Headache

The much talk-about proposed policy initiative, the 24 hour economy is the order of the day, and it looks as if is a headache for the rulling New Patriotic party and governemnt. The rank and file of the party wakes up every blessed day to propagate about the policy. The Presidential Candidate and Flagbearer who happens to be the Second Gentleman, H.E Dr. Mahamoud Bawumia of this country has been in oppostion to this initiative. Ministers of State, Members of Parliament for the rulling NPP, Ambassadors, High Commissioners had also spoken in negation to the 24 hour Ecomomy. Scores of party executives and members of the rulling party and government had portrayed same with the fear of losing to the opposition National Democratic Congress, the NDC. With few of thier Members, particularly, Honourable Ekow Asafua admitting that if the NDC is able to communicate the policy well to Ghanaians they will purchase or buy into that idea. The 24 Hour Economy, if implemented, when the the NDC ass...

Enough Of The Funfairs

It has become noticeable that the Tsikata-Zanyoh-led  UGSRC is more of a funfair without recourse to their policies tabled during the run-up to the SRC Campaign the previous year.  We have, and continue to witness only seminars and entertainment programs setting aside cutting-edge programs and projects that would contribute to the development needs of students. Most importantly, breaking away from their policy focus and direction. The most bizarre and absurd is the secular and photages of the SRC President and his team popped up on various social media handles purported to have met with KNUST SRC Secretary and other executives to strengthen ties and consolidate support for mutual benefit, assuming a role that is coterminous with that of NUGS President. Unless the motive behind is that he intends to contest for NUGS Portfolio. This stunning gesture has caused euphoria, with some students anticipatingthe SRC President continuing his tour to UCC, Winneba, and UDS among others. Th...

I Beg To Differ On Lawyer John's Demise

  Lawyer John Kumah    The question I ask myself is why is it that there are always serial killings in the New Patriotic Party? I found no reason why there should be murder associated with the NPP. If we could reset our memory to the death of Adams Mahama of the Upper East Region in 2015 which led to the apprehension of Asabke Alangdi and Gregory culminated in the suspension of his brother, Paul Afoko as National Chairperson of the New Patriotic Party then opposition party, then we could now understand why the NPP is seen in connection with killings. Chairman Adams was attacked and a substance believed to be acid was poured on him, which led to his demise. Poncing on it over and over again, I couldn't fathom why they should incarcerate one of their own affable persons. I keep wondering why the gruesome murder of Joseph Boakye Danquah, then the member of Parliament for Akyem Abuakwa North who was supposed to assume the position of a flag bearer of the New patriotic part...
