Accra, Ghana – President John Dramani Mahama today met with members of the Technical University Teachers’ Association of Ghana (TUTAG) to solicit their views as the National Democratic Congress (NDC) continues to prepare and fine-tune its manifesto towards election 2020.
TUTAG was led by its President Dr. Solomon Kilson.
Ex-President Mahama who is also the Presidential candidate of the NDC assured the members of TUTAG of the NDC’s commitment towards a comprehensive technical education and when given the mandate to govern the country in the next election, the party would continue with the convention of polytechnics to technical universities including building six new technical universities for the newly created regions.
President Mahama condemned the NPP government for meddling in the affairs of university education in the country describing how some Professors were demoted or downgraded in ranks as inhumane and affront to the dignity of the human resources of the technical universities.
Dr. Kilson thanked the flagbearer in particular and the NDC in general for recognising them as a worthy institution for their professional inputs as NDC prepares their manifesto.
