Recommendations Made By Raphael Kobla Elorm Dzivenu, The Just Outgone KTU SRC President To New KTU SRC Executives

H.E. Raphael Kobla Elorm Dzivenu made these recommendations in his speech delivered on the occasion of the KTU SRC Handing Over and Inauguration Ceremony held on 29^th July 2019.

The ceremony took place in the Aba Bentil Theater, KTU, the ceremony saw in attendance of the Pro-Vice-Chancellor Rev. Dr Nicholas A. Siaw who Chaired the event and other dignitaries including the Registrar, KTU, N.A Mensah-Livingstone (PhD), Mr Samuel Kwabena Ayittah (the Dean of Students), Deans of various faculties and other heads of departments.

RECOMMENDATIONS;

I will recommend the following to the incoming executives;

1. They should build a cordial relationship with the Finance department of the University and consult with the computer networking department to create a system which would be linked with the OSIS of the school, to have a proper tracking of our monies.
2. I would recommend that the incoming engage with investors to see how they can put together proposals to develop the SRC land at Sempoaminsah and the supposed hostel on campus to start the hostel project for students.
3. The incoming should call for a meeting through the Dean of student office with management to discuss on issues on the procurement activities of the SRC, to reach a mutual agreement to help aid in acquiring souvenirs for students before any delay sets in.
4. The incoming should put a proposal together as well as call for a meeting with management to discuss about a space to be allocated for putting up a Police station on campus, for with our interaction with the Ghana Police Service all they need is for a space to enable them to put a structure to better the safety of our students and the general community as a whole.
5. I would recommend that a desk should be created in the SRC Presidents’ office for the Vice President, so us to safeguard the seat of the President and treat it with respect when He is on outstation duty.
6. I would recommend the SRC should seek sponsorship to secure a pick up for the daily and fast movements of the President and His Executives.
7. The drafted policy documents should be reviewed and passed by the General Assembly for all students to have access to for the smooth running of the various SRC asserts.
8. The SRC webmaster must be worked with hand in hand, to make proper use of all the mediums of communication for the student populace and safeguard information for future references.
9. I would also recommend that proper and consistent consultations should be made before any activity or actions are carried out as SRC, so us not to bring any sanctions on the council.
10. My last and final recommendation, Mr. Chairman is that the incoming Executives should work together in understanding and stop the undermining of each other and be submissive to instruction and love one another and shouldn’t use this platform to take advantage of the common students especially the guys among the executives and exhibit moral standards and uphold their integrity.
11. Chairman, Media present, Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen, the position of the SRC President Has been challenging but I must say has been good so far, despite the challenges many lessons have been learnt and it is my uttermost wish and prayer that the incoming would do much better and achieve more than we did.

I want to use this platform to ask on behalf of myself and executives that probably in the order of our work knowingly and unknowingly, if we might have stepped on anyone’s toes we be pardoned, for we are human full of imperfections and as the saying goes ‘To err is human but to forgive is divine.

We are grateful to GOD for a successful end and want to say a big Thank You to the University Council, Management, Dean, lecturers, Colleague executives, students and close allies for the support.

Long live Ghana
Long live KTU
Long live the SRC

(SRC PRESIDENT 2018/19).
