Speaking on behalf of the lecturers to Adom News after a press conference on Thursday, Dr Isaac Brako stated that they do not expect him (Dr Eric Opoku Mensah) to speak for the UEW lecturers anymore.
“We haven’t asked him to speak on our issues because he doesn’t know how we feel or what we are going through. He should stay away from UEW issues.
“He incited the students for the violence that occurred in the school and that was why they went ahead to destroy cars of lecturers and other school property,” he stated.
