Daniel Osei Wereko writes; Daniel Osei Wereko (UGSRC PRO) What do we know so far? Up until now, we know a six count of cases was filed by some students of this University and members of the student body in the SRC Court seeking for grounds to impeach the current SRC President. Again, known to us is a court decision which granted two of the six count of cases and established a prima facie basis for the said impeachment. We also know a General Assembly (GA) Emergency Meeting which was halted by a ‘Stay of Execution’ granted by the Appeals Board (AB) under the SRC constitution.

But this unfortunately for us is not what we see in our jurisdiction so far as the office of the Dean of students Affairs and matters of the SRC is concerned. The African proverb that, "what an elderly sees sitting down, a child cannot see standing" the translation of this proverb is the critical reason why, the University has given powers to the Dean of students Affairs to act as an elderly figure to exercise an oversight responsible on the students Representative Council(SRC), Graduate students Association of Ghana( UG

On the morning of 18th May at the premises of TV3, the two almost got into a fistfight had it not been for the intervention of people around.

Loudmouth Member of Parliament for the good people of Assin Central Constituency, in the Central Region of Ghana, Hon Kennedy ‘Akompreko’ Agyapong in a brief encounter with Oman FM has made some serious revelations this morning.

Hon Kennedy Agyapong recounted that Bernard Nyarko stated in an interview that he has a feeling that he will become a pastor or wishes to become a pastor in the future before he dies.
