Some level 400 students of the University of Education, Winneba (UEW) ran helter-skelter as officers of the Police Service fired tear gas at them during a protest on Friday over discrepancies in their results.

The initiative taken by the Service managed to disperse the demonstrating students who blocked roads with tree branches preventing vehicles from entering the University.

A scheduled meeting expected to take place between final year students and management over the student’s concern did not happen, compelling the students to go on a rampage.

Their actions disrupted lectures and some administrative activities, thereby compelling school’s authorities to for police intervention leading to the firing of tear gas.

According to the students, management has failed to update their academic records on their portal.

They stated that their academic results on the school’s notice board are different from what has been uploaded on their portal.

They believe this is a deliberate attempt by the school's management to fail them since they cannot track their academic records.

The university is expected to hold its graduation ceremony in three weeks’ time but the students say they want to know their true results before vacation.
