In as much as we believe and respect the right to free speech we are also aware of our cultural tenets which enjoins us to respect our elders. We want to remind Mr. Bawah that at his age, former President Rawlings has distinguished himself as a Head of State and a voice of conscience on the continent of Africa and the world stage. The visionary leadership of former President Rawlings is what gave birth to the University of Education and paved way for people like Mr.Bawah to parade themselves as lecturers today. The statement by the former President's office raises serious issues for which the University and people like Mr.Bawah should be responding to instead of attacking the person of the Former President. We at this juncture invite the Office of the Special Prosecutor to be interested in the matter of maladministration and impropriety going on in that University-The UEW deserves better.
