The denial was made at a press conference addressed by Professor Anthony Afful-Broni, the Acting Vice-Chancellor of the UEW. He said the Amnesty International, at a news conference in Accra, addressed by its Campaign and Fundraising Coordinator, Mr Samuel Agbotsey, had accused the University of abusing the human rights of some staffs and lecturers. He said: “Those who are peddling lies of human rights abuses are individuals who have decided that the rules and regulations of the University should only be applied if they serve their interests and causes. The Acting Vice-Chancellor said the Amnesty International was a credible global organisation whose activities and concerns on issues of human rights were recognised by governments, which were acted upon.
