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

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...

DISGRUNTLED UGSRC EC CHAIR APOLOGIZES FOR WRONGDOING

Source:Univers The embattled and stepped aside Chairperson of the UGSRC Electoral Commission has registered his unqualified apology to the office of the Dean of Students' Affairs and the other mambers of the University Community for his untenable behaviour towards the Dean and the entire populace of the university,following his leaked tape. His miscalculated and unguided correspondence to the Dean escalated tensions, amidsts his recent communication with UGSRC Presidential Aspirants on a possible pair between aspirants.

The letter portrays that Mr.Ibn Ibrahim Mudasdir had shown remorse for walking over on the dean, and his admission ...

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...
