In a bold statement to our blog, Presidential Press Secretary Michael N. Blojaye has confirmed that ULSIL will not honor the University of Liberia Student Affairs communication halting political party rallies on campus.
According to the Press Secretary, the ban on student politics is not the result of the personal statement of Mr. Bartekwa. He clarified that while the ban may prevent students from participating in democratic elections, it cannot overturn Article 17 of the 1986 Liberian Constitution, which guarantees the right of assembly to all citizens.
“The administration cannot grant the formation of a political party while claiming there is a ban on student politics,” PPS Blojaye noted, highlighting the inconsistency in UL’s enforcement."
Furthermore, the PPS confirmed that ULSIL under President Tingban will send official communication to the University Administration, Board of Trustees, and other stakeholders, emphasizing that Student Affairs has overstepped its functions in issuing the ban.
