*GUPS ALERT*🇸🇻
27th March, 2018.
To: All Students, Media and the General Public.
GUPS STANDS WITH GHANA FIRST PATRIOTIC FRONT (GFPF) AND NUGS.
In pursuant of article 35(1&2) which states that, "Ghana shall be a democratic state dedicated to the realization of freedom and justice; and accordingly, sovereignty resides in the people of Ghana from whom Government derives all its powers and authority through this Constitution.
(2) The State shall protect and safeguard the independence, unity and territorial integrity of Ghana, and shall seek the well-being of all her citizens".
This underscores the fact that the sovereignty of Ghana is supreme and our birthright and for that matter cannot be mortgaged for any paltry amount of money that has the propensity to endangering the future of the country which the state is mandated to protect.
The Ghana Union of Professional Students (GUPS) believes that more often than not when issues of national interest arises, the youth and student leaders in particular fails to rise to the occasion yet they have the laxity to chant that the future of the country resides in the youth.
This is the time we must rise to speak and protect the interest of the youth and the entire Ghanaian citizenry against the passage of the infamous "Ghana-US Military Coup D'etat".
For this reason, the Ghana Union of Professional Students with supports from her over Thirty-Six (36) professional institutions, supports the call by the Ghana First Patriotic Front (GFPF) and the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) to hit the street to expressing their utmost displeasure against the government and calling on the latter to abrogate the deal or engage in broad-stakeholder consultation for a re-look and proper interpretation of the deal if necessary at all.
GUPS remains a nonpolitical, nonprofit and professional umbrella that seeks, protects, safeguards and propels the greater interest of the professional students of Ghana.
GUPS............ THE UNION
GUPS ............. PROFESSIONALS
Signed.
