The
National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) have registered its displeasure over
how issues of students are handled in recent times especially in some parts of
Northern Ghana. Citing the recent
agitation in the Bolgatanga Senior High School which resulted in the death of a
final year student, the Union said it is very important for Ghana to find a
lasting solution to problems between students and school management to prevent
such incidents from happening. In an interview with Citi News, the President of NUGS Prosper Dzitse insisted that the
happenings were due to the lack of right channels through which to address
their grievances. He said, in the southern part there is a
channel of communication through which students address their issues so that
when the local authority in the school is not able to handle the matter they forward
it to the regional authority who work directly under the directorate of the
Ghana education service and the matter will be handled at that level. He
therefore called on the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) to thoroughly
but fairly investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of the student.
He disclosed that violence is not the solution to the problem even though the
matter has not been handled.
