Security men have been stationed in front of the statue of Mahatma Gandhi on the University of Ghana to prevent students and pedestrians from taking pictures with the monument.
The Security men were deployed to patrol the premise of the edifice after it was discovered to have been defaced by hooligans in the early hours of Monday.
Our reporters on Thursday sighted some students who attempted to take pictures, of the artifact of the civil disobedience activist being ordered to stop and vacate the premises.
Some people who were restricted from interacting with the statue this afternoon shared their sentiments with Univers News.
“I don’t really know why a security man should be here. If security men are on campus to gard human lives, are they now coming to guard the statue that is there for the public to see�?, one student lamented.
Another student who was ordered off the perimeter said;
“The security man should be cautious. I stopped to read, I didn’t stop to take pictures or touch. So for that he shouldn’t query me. That is why when he did that, i didn’t pay attention to him. I just needed to get information off it and then move on.�?
Some individuals also alluded to the inadequacy of security personnel on the University adding that the priority of the security department of the school has been misplaced.
However, other pedestrians concurred with the move.
“I understand him, because so far there has been some vandalism on the statue. I think he’s just trying to protect us in a way. He’s also trying to protect the statue as well�?, she agreed.
The guards are to be stationed around the perimeter on a 24-four surveillance basis.
