His comment follows a violent demonstration by the students that forced the Regional Security Council (REGSEC) to shut down the university indefinitely.
The closure of the university has caused students to vacate campus except for foreign students.
Speaking on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem Wednesday, Hon. Stevens Siaka said the riot at the school was unwarranted.
