Well-known musician and a student pursuing studies in Political Science and Information Studies at the University of Ghana (UG), Guru NKZ is gearing up for a significant shift in his career trajectory.
He has officially announced his candidacy for the presidency in the forthcoming 2024/2025 Student Representative Council (SRC) elections at the university.
In a recent interview with Accra-based TV3, Guru expressed his determination to address critical issues affecting the university community.
He stressed the urgency of providing concrete solutions to the prevalent challenges faced by students within the institution.
“I’m currently studying with the University of Ghana in Political Science and Information Studies and I’m in my third year. I want to start there because I have seen the happenings and the kind of leader that people want,” Guru remarked during the interview.
His proposed initiatives include the establishment of Legon Television, improving campus transportation services by adding more buses, and introducing recreational activities to help alleviate student stress.
“I’m looking forward to bringing Legon TV; students are tired of the radio station. We should have a Legon TV, the buses on campus are very few, we need to add more,” Guru emphasised.
Furthermore, Guru aims to revive the University of Ghana’s prestige, attracting prospective students and restoring the institution’s former glory.
If successful in his bid, Guru will join the ranks of musicians like Samini, who previously secured the SRC Presidency at GIMPA in 2022, showcasing a notable fusion of music and student leadership.
