Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Former President John Dramani Mahama has indicated that every public university was initiated and built by the National Democratic Congress (NDC).<\/b><\/p>\n

He says the New Patriotic Party (NPP) only comes in to rename those universities.<\/p>\n

Unlike the NPP, he said, the NDC is known for nation-building through the provision of infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are known as nation builders because of the number of schools we have built. Every public university was initiated and built by us. All the NPP knows how to do is name universities that people have built.<\/p>\n

After NDC builds a university, then they will give it the name of one of their heroes or people. We are going to rename the universities. Ghana has many heroes, and not only the heroes of the NPP tradition.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can name an administration block, hostel, and library after somebody. But the university must reflect its core mandate. And so we will restore the original names, and the names that they have given them will be given to significant infrastructure in the universities.<\/p>\n

Every public university was initiated and built by NDC; NPP only comes to rename them \u2013 Mahama<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd we will add other people and name the infrastructure in the universities after them. But if the university is the University for Development Studies, that is its core mandate. It will be called the University for Development Studies,\u201d he said while addressing party supporters, chiefs, and students at Zuarungu in the Upper East Region.<\/p>\n

It is recalled that President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo renamed the University for Development Studies (UDS), Wa campus after Simon Diedong (SD) Dombo, a politician from the United Party tradition.<\/p>\n
