On the same show, he further noted that he is aware of the challenges faced by the student body and that it all has to do with money and how it influences the planning of SRC Week celebrations.

He further opined on GTV Breakfast Show that.

”I have put my ear on the ground and I have watched as well and I know that there are plenty of things that students need. But with the institution being a private one it can only run-on profit or loss. We would need benevolent Institution to come on board to support them."
