Mr. Kusi was speaking at the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) chapter of the University of Energy and Natural Resources (UENR), week celebration launch on Wednesday, August 24, 2022, at the University Auditorium. “Show leadership and see leadership not as an opportunity to amass wealth but an opportunity to serve others and to make an impact in the lives of others,” he further stressed. He added that student leaders should always make sure they use the students’ dues to organize seminars that will help broaden the knowledge of those who vote them into those positions.
