Former President and Flagbearer of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, says the next NDC government restore the original names of the public universities that have been renamed by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
This comes after Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo renamed the University for Development Studies (UDS), Wa campus after Simon Diedong (SD) Dombo, a politician from the United Party tradition.
Speaking to party supporters, chiefs, and students at Zuarungu in the Upper East Region, the former President said the names that the NPP have given currently will be given to significant infrastructure in the various universities.
According to Mahama, every public university was initiated and built by the NDC accusing the NPP government of only coming in to rename those universities.
“We are known as nation builders because of the number of schools we have built. Every public university was initiated and built by us. All the NPP knows how to do is name universities that people have built.
“After NDC builds a university, then they will give it the name of one of their heroes or people. We are going to rename the universities. Ghana has many heroes, and not only the heroes of the NPP tradition.
