[contextly_sidebar id=”PRRDjkkrSH56pgvxkQ74en1ZwlWnmPi7″]KNUST-chapter President of the Association, Kizito Osei Fosu, expressed the concerns at the 2017 Educational Forum organized by the GRASAG-KNUST Women\u2019s Commission in Kumasi.<\/p>\n

The forum, which was under theme, \u201cToday\u2019s Graduate; Exploring Numerous Opportunities\u201d exposed postgraduates, undergraduates and students from second cycle institutions to existing opportunities.<\/p>\n

He said the infiltration of politics into student affairs, is affecting the entire administration of students’ unions in Ghana, and that steps must be taken to find a lasting solution.<\/p>\n

Mr. Fosu described the happenings within as “bad and sickening”, saying that \u201cnow as it stands, we don\u2019t have a NUGS President. And you know GRASAG-KNUST wouldn\u2019t be able to walk to the Presidency to table our issues because there are structures.\u201d<\/p>\n

He indicated that, the absence of a NUGs President has halted all operations since no NEC meetings can\u00a0take place,\u00a0and grievances cannot be channeled to the appropriate quarters without someone spearheading such issues.<\/p>\n

He further said students in Ghana have numerous concerns that need urgent attention, but that has not been done because of the current happenings within the student unions.<\/p>\n
