The alumni of the University Hall of the KNUST has vowed to challenge the Ottumfuo Asantehene Osei Tutu the second should he endorse the conversion of Katanga Hall into a mixed hall.

The alumnus is angered the management of the University has gone ahead to admit female students into the conventional male hall disregarding pending resolution processes commenced by the Otumfuo who is Chancellor of the University.

Speaking on the Ultimate Breakfast Show Katanga Alumni Executive Gideon Amoaning insisted that the alumni will go all lengths to restore the traditions of the hall even if it means going against a ruling of the Asanteheem.

Answering a question put by host Julius Caesar Anadem, “if the Otumfuo’s decision is that it should remain a mixed hall, what would be the reaction from the Alumni,” he was emphatic, “we will still fight it, we will still fight it.”

“Of course we are ready everywhere we have to go even if we have to take the issue to an outside court we will do it. We are doing everything possible to get our hall back and we are not going to end this thing,” He exuded.

He also condemned the arrest of some Katangees who converged at Maxima yesterday insisting they were not there for any unlawful reasons.
