UGSRC PREZ MEETS PARLIAMENTARY SELECT COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION

The Parliamentary Select Committee on Education has scheduled a meeting with the Vice Chancellor, and GRASAG President, GTEC among others addressed to the office of the UGSRC President. The meeting is scheduled for discussing the astronomical increase in academic fees. The recent pressure mounted on management and the council of the university for a reduction in fees by concerned students of the university. Ghana Tertiary Education Commission issued a warning to all tertiary institutions not to charge above the 15% threshold approved by parliament. The National Union of Ghana 🇬🇭 Schools, Dennis Appiah Larbi petitioned the House of Representatives and GTEC and the heads of institutions concerned. The University of Ghana claimed that the school did not increase fees during the apex of COVID, and did the same the previous year. We are very much optimistic that the decision would be favorable and sympathize with the students. Education we believe is a right, not a privilege. Education is continually a place for the rich, but not for the poor. This notion needs to be avoided. A copy of the

Stephanie Naadu's 100 Days In Office Is A Failure

Ag. University of Ghana Students' Representative Council Presid8ent, Stephanie Naadu's appointment is more of a ceremonial orientation than an administrative orientation. She was elected by the student populace as a general secretary to take records of the UGSRC and write minutes among other things. However, owing to the impasse between the two substantive UGSRC presidential candidates at the Court of Appeal, she was appointed by the school management to spearhead, supervise and steer the affairs of students within the Union Building. It is quite unfortunate for the declared winner and plaintiff, Prince Asumadu who sought redress at the Accra High Court to be sworn in as the duly elected president, which went in his favour. The respondent, the previous Chief Justice had sought for appeal at the Court of Appeal to overturn the ruling of the high court to install Samuel Amos Ofosu as the validly elected president. Stephanie Naadu has been fortunate and she needs to take advantage...

GENERAL ASSEMBLY SPEAKER WARNS SRC EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The newly elected speaker of the University of Ghana General Assembly and also former SRC Vice Presidential Aspirant, Ahmad Ramzy has given a sound of caution to the President of the Students' Representative Council, Martin Gyasi Boakye, and his Vice President, Emmanuel Boakye Lincoln to consider the Constitution of the Council in the selection and appointment of its executives for the 65th Administration. He cited that there is a provision in the constitution that enjoins the General Assembly to appoint or approve the entire membership of committees and not just heads of committees. The communique signed speaker conveys that G.A. is entitled to appoint and approve the heads and members of the audit board. He warns them against old aged legacy appointments made by the executives of those special appointments within the purview of the G.A His motives are to ensure transparency, and also value for money within the SRC.

Vacate UGSRC President's Office Naadu Told

Information reaching Whistleblower, 360 is that the immediate past Acting UGSRC President is feeling reluctant to vacate the office of the UGSRC President, Stephanie Naadu Antwi following the swearing-in of Prince Asumadu and Wisdom Ndukwe as President and Vice President respectively, just recently. The behaviour put out by the former Ag. UGSRC President who doubles as the General Secretary of UGSRC is uncalled for and has made many students believe that she is a power-hungry chief executive. It seems many students now tend to believe the aphorism or the common parlance that, "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". I would like to urge her to assume and take up her position as the substantive General Secretary of the SRC and work, coordinate, monitor, supervise and control the secretariat and the publicity. She has been ascribed as a woman of charisma and we want her to behave as much to put her enemies to shame. If nothing at all, we can recall her ro...

UGSRC:Vetting Results Not True Reflections of Candidates

In the late hours of Saturday,27th August 2022 at 11.30pm vetting of UGSRC hopefuls were vetted. Vetting of candidates commenced from the treasurer portforlio through to Secretary to the presidential. Edward was the First candidate to pass through the vetting followed by Michael Kuti a.k.a IMF. Then proceeded to the general secretary portfolio with Emmanuella Boakyewa with much precision, Vida Minta with over confidence, Ernestona Mahama walked in gorgeously and modestly with much enthusiasm. Diana Ohene Berma storming in with a music Box playing Diana ooo Diana ooo who sat for barely 10 mins less than her contenders. Beauty who was supposed to have been the last, we were told had written to the vetting panel to recuse herself from the vetting. The presidential race saw Noah and Ambrose being first on the list,then Lincoln and Boakye,followed by Ackom and Ramzy, proceded by Curtis and Linda, and ended with Graham and Paa Kwesi. The results should have witnessed Ackom - Ramzy and Noah-...
