It’s harsh to defer 6,000 KNUST students for delay in payment of fees – Ablakwa

North Tongu Member of Parliament, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has described the decision by the management of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) to defer 6,000 students for delay in payment of fees as harsh.

The Former Deputy Minster of Education in charge of Tertiary appealed to the Ministry of Education to urgently intervene and save the future of these students.

The students have described the action as harsh.

Management however justified its decision saying some students use their fees to engage in gambling and other stuff.

The decision by KNUST authorities to defer the courses of some 6,000 students for non-payment of fees is most harsh and inconsiderate considering the current economic crisis.
