Accra, Ghana - Renowned Ghanaian musician and University of Ghana SRC presidential hopeful, Maradona Adjei Yeboah, popularly known as Guru, has publicly declared his membership in the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

However, Guru emphasized that his affiliation with the ruling party does not imply their involvement in his bid for the Students' Representative Council (SRC) presidency.

The musician turned student leader expressed his admiration for Dr. Bawumia's ideas, but maintained that his SRC ambition is independent of the NPP's influence.

“I’m a member of NPP, and I support Bawumia’s ideas, but they have no hand in my SRC ambition. The students don’t like mixing mainstream politics with school politics. I am solely sponsoring my campaign," he said.

Guru also plans to implement a policy for at least one sick bay in every hall, highlighting his focus on student welfare.

He shared his vision for student welfare on Adom FM's Dwaso Nsem morning show.

“Accommodation is a problem, 60 per cent of the students come from home, and transportation is difficult because the country is already hard,” he explained.

“I’ll address accommodation, transport, sick bay, and data issues when I become the UG SRC President,” he promised.
