The National Union of Ghana Students has called on officials of the Central University College to compensate the about 700 students who were dismissed based on the directive from National Accreditation Board.
The NAB gave the order for the withdrawal of 695 students who were admitted into the school even though they did not possess the requisite grades that qualify them into the University.
The NUG’s call comes in the wake of threats by some of the affected students to pursue the matter to its logical conclusion.
The Union in a statement issued on Friday said “it will not fall into the sycophantic jamboree of castigating the officials of the Central University College (CUC) for an irreparable fault they have willingly admitted perpetuating.
“Also, the Union will not berate the National Accreditation Board (NAB) for their 10 January, 2011 directive which we believe they acted in good faith in order to ensure that quality and not quantity human resource materials are available for our country in the future,” the statement said.
NUGS is appealing to the University officials to work closely with the students and the Union in finding a lasting solution to the problem.
“We are also calling on the Ministry of Education (MOE) not to sit aloof while the Union and the students warm their way through this difficulty. They must get themselves involved in building the confidence of the students,” it said.
The Union assured the Ghanaian Public especially the parents of the affected students not to throw their arms in despair, but should rather stand with the Union in its attempt to nip the crisis in the bud.
