Students called to use dialogue to address conflicts

The Chairman of the Takoradi Polytechnic Council Dr. George Oduro has asked the students Representative Council and other bodies on campus to use dialogue as a tool to address all internal conflicts. 

He said the local unionized workers should exhaust all laid down structures in resolving their grievances before embarking on industrial action. 

Dr. Oduro made the request during the induction of Reverend Professor Daniel Nyarko as the Rector of the Polytechnic in Takoradi. 

Dr. Oduro said Rev. Prof. Nyarko's appointment is unique, since he is the first academic staff of a polytechnic in the country to rise to the high office. 

He urged the Rector to be a father to all members of the Polytechnic community irrespective of their ethnic background, religious affiliation, political orientation and interests. 

Rev. Prof. Nyarko said his vision is to transform the polytechnic into a state comparable to any technical university in the world.
