Students of the Accra City Campus of the University of Ghana will Wednesday September 26 embark on a demonstration to press home their demand for the university authorities and the Ministry of Education to reduce the fees which they described as "outrageous". Speaking in an interview, Mr. Daniel Korshie Adzraku, President of the Students Representative Council of the City Campus said the executives have been battling with the issue for the past three years with the previous Ministers of Education with no positive result. "We have been negotiating with past Ministers right from Ameyaw Akumfi, Elizabeth Ohene, Osafo Marfo, Papa Owusu Ankomah and the latest Professor Fobih and these have not yielded any positive result and it seems like nobody is fighting our cause for us so we have to fight our own cause." He explained that students were suffering to pay their school fees whilst many were not able to pay and "I must confess that what we are paying here is three times what our colleagues on the main campus are paying". For the City Campus, a student is paying almost eight million cedis a year, whilst a student on the Legon campus is paying a little over two million cedis for the same period. Mr Adzraku said the Police had granted permission to the students for the demonstration and they would march peacefully from the campus through Ridge to the Ministry of Education to present a petition to the Minister of Education, Science and Sports and then to the Parliament to present a similar petition to the Parliamentary Select Committee on Education.
