Former President of the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) and Member of Parliament (MP) for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzato Ablakwa has said students should be given the choice of choosing whether to belong to mixed or single sex halls.
Accord to the former NUGS President there is absolutely no need to abolish the latter.
Mr. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa further pointed out that single sex halls in the Universities are just like single sex secondary schools and have served Ghanaians well with their rich traditions over the decades.
“They are not problematic in anyway, they pose not the minutest of threats to contemporary enlightenment and more importantly, we should focus on weightier matters”, he said on his facebook wall.
He commended Commonwealth Hall “Vandal Hunam” who seems to have kept quite an impressive archive; “long live the Vandal city, Katanga, Conti, Casford, Africa and Adehye halls”.
