Lead by Example - New Student leaders Charged

Newly elected student leaders of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) have been charged to see their elevation as a call to greater responsibility and lead by example in their service to the student body.

The Pro Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Denis Aheto, who gave the advice, also called on them to demonstrate integrity, respect, commitment, and deliver results that reflect their capacity to lead the student body.

“Your behaviour sets the tone for our Council. Demonstrate integrity, respect, and commitment in all that you do, inspiring others to follow suit,” he said.

Prof. Aheto made the remarks during the Swearing-in and handover ceremony of the newly elected executives of the Students' Representative Council (SRC), Local NUGS, and the Graduate Students’ Association of Ghana (GRASAG) of UCC.

He advised the new executives to work as a team and not to act individually outside the targets and objectives.
