I’m a member of NPP, but they have no hand in my SRC president ambition – Guru
Ghanaian musician and University of Ghana SRC presidential candidate, Maradona Adjei Yeboah, known as Guru, has said he is a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
Despite supporting Dr Bawumia’s ideas, he said the ruling party is not involved in his SRC ambition.
He said, “I’m a member of NPP, and I support Bawumia’s ideas, but they have no hand in my SRC ambition. The students don’t like mixing mainstream politics with school politics. I am solely sponsoring my campaign.”
In an interview on Adom FM’s morning show, Dwaso Nsem on Monday, Guru also outlined key issues he aims to address if elected SRC President, including accommodation, transportation, and the need for free data for online lectures.
“Accommodation is a problem, 60 per cent of the students come from home, and transportation is difficult because the country is already hard,” he explained.
Guru also plans to implement a policy for at least one sick bay in every hall, highlighting his focus on student welfare.
“I’ll address accommodation, transport, sick bay, and data issues when I become the UG SRC President,” he promised.
