GUPS Hits Streets Over Gssm Saga

The Ghana Union of Professional Students has resolved to embark on a protest march to kick against the sale of the land on which the Ghana School of Survey and Mapping (GSSM) is situated.

The demonstration which is scheduled to come off on Wednesday, 2nd December 2015 will see some 700 students of the school and other sister institutions within the union hit the streets.

This resolution by the National Executive Council (NEC) of the Union to demonstrate is as a result of the non-response to distress calls to stakeholders and also; the breakdown of several talks between the Union, the SRC and directors of the Survey and Mapping Division of the Lands Commission under whose remit the school falls.

The Protest March begins at 8:am where students will march from Obra Spot at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle, through the High Street, through to Tudu, the Prof. John Evans Atta Mills Highway and ends at the Hearts Park.

The Protest March will be climaxed with a press conference and presentation of petition to relevant stakeholders.

The union is therefore calling on all GUPS institutions, all student movements, and Ghanaian students to come out on Wednesday the 2nd of December to show patriotism and solidarity to our brothers and sisters at the Ghana School of Survey and Mapping
