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.

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...
