Old Vandals in parliament call out UG for disrespecting court injunction

The Parliamentary caucus of the Old Vandals Association has called out the management of the University of Ghana for failing to implement a court injunction against the implementation of its new residential policy.

Some continuing students resident in the commonwealth hall sued the university for ejecting them following the introduction of the new policy.

A permanent injunction was therefore slapped on the university.

Management of the university has however failed to respect the decision of the court arguing it has filed an appeal.

A protest against the silence of the university on the injunction led to the arrest of 18 students who are currently on remand.

Addressing the media in parliament a member of the caucus and MP for Builsa South Dr Clement Apaak in the company of Afiduase Asokore MP Dr Ayew Afriye and others demanded that the university respects the decision of the court.

“As Members of Parliament who are alumni of Commonwealth Hall, the great vandal city, we want to use this opportunity to call on the University of Ghana to respect the laws of the land and to aid by the contents of the injunction”
