The MP said she had observed students struggling to get home at the end of the semester.

She provided five buses and also shared snacks with the students upon departure.

She also urged the students to use the period to rest and rejuvenate for the coming semester.

Alhassan's main rival in the polls is the National Democratic Congress' John Dumelo.

Dumelo has also engaged University of Ghana students recently by organising tutorials for them ahead of their Academic writing and Critical thinking exams.

He wished them well and shared pictures of how the free tutorial sessions went online.

In the past, Dumelo has also organised free photoshoot sessions for first-year students.

He has courted controversy and had to deny reports that he had claimed that female students of the University of Ghana and other female fans had been chasing him.
