As always, our songs make superzo lively. But are we going to be there to sing this time?
As we reported yesterday, the school authorities allowed only 4 students from each class
to travel to the Adansi district to support our athletes at Obuasi's Len Clay Stadium.
Now, the Student Representative Council has a task of convincing the masters and
authorities of the college so as to permit majority of the student body if
not all to witness the super zonals in two weeks time.
Some section of the students believe that without the support and
cheers of the boys, our athletes cannot make any strides when they compete
with the vociferous Osei Tutu, Kumasi High and Opoku Ware Secondary.
They also
do not understand the qualification for selection of the students, be it on academic
or extracurricular grounds.
When prempeh.org talked to the athletes, they also shared the same
concern. Ahmed, the inspirational soccer captain who has joined the bandwagon
of athletes and is doing very well, said, "we need the student body to come
cheer us".
The venerable Senior Prefect Ampong S.O. has taken upon himself to sit down with the authorities
and find ways and means of making it to Obuasi with majority of the students
to support our athletes.
The authorities are afraid that our boys will take advantage of the long distance
between Obuasi and Kumasi and spend some time in discos or engage in other forbidden acts.
