Deputy Registrar of Takoradi Technical University (TTU), Mr Kenneth Boateng, has asked students to observe the protocols of the coronavirus disease (Covid-19).

He stressed that the adherence to the covid safety measures would be enforced on campus when the university reopens.

Mr Boateng made observation on the sidelines of the disinfection exercise in the university on Thursday (January 7, 2021).

The exercise, a collaboration between the Ministry of Education (MoE) and Zoomlion Ghana Limited (ZGL), followed announcement by the President for all schools from basic to the tertiary level to be fumigated and disinfected before resumption.

According to him, complying with the protocols will help keep the university environs safe and healthy. Covid, he said, was still lurking around, and thus admonished both the fresh and returning students to continue observing the protocols.

“We are disinfecting all the universities, colleges and their open spaces in the Western Region,” he said.

He commended government’s efforts for helping to reduce the spread of the disease.

Alhaji Abdulai encouraged citizens in the region to constantly practise the Covid safety measures.
