University of Ghana to outlaw perching

KESSBENFM 93.3 "The University of Ghana is to outlaw the incidence of �perching� from the next academic year.

The University is currently engaged in putting up a 7000-bed capacity hostel and believes when completed in about 24 months, it should address the acute accommodation situation."
