Guru Announce decision to contest UG SRC Presidential Election
The rapper announced on his X page on Thursday, May 9, 2024, that he will run for president of the SRC in the upcoming elections.
"Dear Legonites, I’m thrilled to have you back in school. Let's kick off this semester with positivity and enthusiasm!" he said in the X post.
Following this declaration, a student at the University of Ghana warned the rapper against relying on his fame as a celebrity in the election.
The young man, identified as Harris, said UG students will vote solely based on sound policy and not be swayed by Guru's celebrity status.
"Listen, you people should tell him that this is not GIMPA where Samini will go for SRC President and they will vote for him. In the University of Ghana; we don't care about your fame. We will hit your stomach if you bring some trash policies. We don't care; we won't vote for you," he said.
