The President of Disabilities Student Association of University of Cape Coast [UCC], Atubi Abraham, has expressed his displeasure at the free busing piloting system launched by the Student Representative Council [SRC] two weeks ago.
According to him, measures have not been duly put in place to address the challenges of students with disability as they currently have to struggle to board these buses.
To expose the gross extent of the issue, he disclosed in an exclusive interview with ATL FM News, that a physically challenged student was denied getting on board for he had a wheel chair with him, which according to the drivers will occupy space in the bus.
Despite the challenges, Mr. Atubi Abraham commended the SRC for the initiative but called on them to look into the situation, proposing that security persons be allocated to the various bus terminals to ensure discipline.
He further urged the students to be selfless and take into consideration the situation of persons with disability when getting on board the buses.
