KsTU Improves Security at its Main Campus as UniMAC-GIL lauds Initiative.
In a commendable display of solidarity and community support, Kumasi Technical University (KsTU) has received a significant boost towards its plan of enhancing campus security. A delegation from the University of Media, Arts and Communication- UniMAC (Ghana Institute of Languages-GIL) Kumasi campus, led by Mrs. Angelina Ofei Ayim who is the Acting Principal, and Mrs. Asante Kodu, an Assistant Registrar, recently paid a courtesy call on the University Management.
The purpose of their visit was to respond to an appeal made by KsTU's Security Committee for supports to complete the construction of a police post at the main campus of Kumasi Technical University. Given that UniMAC-GIL is situated very close to KsTU, the completion of the police post will significantly contribute to the security and safety of not only KsTU's students and staff but also, those of UniMAC-GIL.

The establishment of the police post will serve as a dedicated space for security officers to ensure swift and effective response to any security concern that may arise within the precinct of the two campuses and their immediate environs. This initiative underscores the commitment of both KsTU and UniMAC-GIL towards safeguarding the well-being of their respective academic communities.
As the project moves forward, both institutions are hopeful that this collaborative effort will set a precedent for further cooperation in addressing shared challenges and promoting a secure and conducive learning environment for all.
