Meeting to probe 66k SRC cash postponed for second time





The leadership of the General Assembly of the University of Ghana Students Representative Council (UGSRC) has for the second time postponed its meeting to probe the findings of the Audit Committee.
On February 7, 2020, the Assembly resolved to subject the Financial Statement of the SRC to a second auditing process.
The decision follows discrepancies observed in the statement presented to the house.
Also, members of the house identified some expenses that had not been sanctioned by the General Assembly.
Subsequently, a motion was moved by the house to refer the financial statement to the audit board.
The motion further tasked the Audit Committee to probe the unsanctioned expenses and where applicable surcharge the monies.
The house also stipulated a seven-day period to the committee to carry out its ‘re-auditing’.
The First Meeting
The house was expected to reconvene on February 14, 2020, after the 7-day ultimatum granted the Audit Committee had elapsed.
However, this was not to be as the meeting was called off in the nick of time.
The Second Meeting
Once again, the meeting expected to take place on February 17 has been called-off.
The leadership of the house has not yet released an official statement to that effect.
Findings of the Audit Committee
Meanwhile, Univers News understands that the Auditing Committee has exonerated the committee of any wrongdoing.

Media promises in the 2024 NPP manifesto: Are they enough?

By Osman Abubakari-Sadiq As a media development enthusiast, I find it natural to scrutinize what political parties have planned for the media landscape in their manifestos, especially with the upcoming elections in Ghana. When I got the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2024 manifesto from a friend, my first instinct was to search for the word “media.” After all, the media plays a vital role in shaping our democracy, ensuring transparency, and holding those in power accountable. Series of promises The manifesto did not disappoint in listing out a series of promises for the media. The NPP recognizes the critical role of the media in promoting democratic governance and preventing disinformation in the digital age. They promise to pass and implement the Broadcasting Bill, resource the Media Capacity Enhancement Program (MCEP), continue implementing the Coordinated Mechanism for the Safety of Journalists (CMSJ), strengthen public media, modernize the Information Services Department, an...
IN A POLITICAL SPHERE FULL OF UNCERTAINTIES: THE ONLY SURE THING IS “ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE INTENTIONS...By  YAKUBU HUSEIN PUMAYA YAKUBU HUSEIN PUMAYA As a fresher, I got attracted to any aspirant who was bold enough to speak to me. In my mind, the best form of bravery was the ability to speak to strangers; that was what I considered to be the hallmark of a true leader. If more than one aspirant spoke to me, I considered the one who was more fluent to be the best candidate. In effect, my opinion of whom a good leader is, was based on his/her ability to speak good English.  When I was a fresher, I remember telling one of my seniors that I thought a particular candidate was going to win. He asked me why, and I answered proudly, “because he was the first to come to my class and he spoke perfect English”. He laughed at me and said, “Small boys are young”.  After 3 years on campus, it has become clear that I was indeed small and young. I have learnt that ...
