KNUST declared a security zone

The Ashanti Regional Security Council has declared the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology as a security zone.

This was contained in a statement issued by the Council.

The statement from the Council explained it took the decision because it had gathered information some members of the University’s Alumni are instigating their members to engage in activities that would disturb academic work and peace, the chairman of the REGSEC Simon Osei-Mensah explained in a press release Tuesday.

He said the University would remain a security zone “until further notice” and that “anybody who directly or indirectly engages in activities that may disturb the peace on the KNUST Campus shall be sternly dealt with in accordance with the law.”
