Image
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has described the Federal Government’s promises as cheap, saying that its members would not be swayed by them. ASUU President, Professor Abiodun Ogunyemi, said this on Monday during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. “We have concluded that promises from the government are very cheap. We are not bothered about what promises the government makes now,” he said. Ogunyemi’s comments come less than 24 hours after the union commenced an industrial action as a result of their grievances with the Federal Government.

LAST SOLUTION TO KNUST MAYHEM - FREEMAN

Image
All affiliated with this great university, and indeed, Ghanaians at large, would now never forget October 22, 2018. The day represents a piece of history that invokes sad memories: smashed cars, burnt motorbikes, other property vandalized beyond recognition. Students were protesting against what they felt was “oppression” by the school authorities, but what had largely started as a civil, peaceful process turned ugly, leading to a full-blown crisis situation: soldiers, curfews, shut down, government intervention, school governing council dissolution. We must all condemn the behavior of students who couldn’t use the peaceful approach to make their voice heard by the powers there be. But as we look for lasting solutions to avoid future occurrences we should not fail to examine the remote factors that led to the ugly student unrest. Of course, naturally, the focus has been on the immediate cause - the brutalization of an innocent student who, per reports, almost lost his memory...
