Gbarnga (LINA) - As part of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf’s commitment to meeting the demands of students at the Bong County Technical College (BCTC) in Gbarnga, the administration of the college has announced immediate reduction in its tuition and other fees. The BCTC official disclosed that construction works on the science laboratory and other components of the college’s facility are nearing completion. Following weeks of student protest at the BCTC, President Sirleaf in June temporarily closed the college and promised the students to appoint a President to steer the affairs of the college and to take some administrative decisions to meet their demands. In line with the promises, the Liberian leader recently appointed Dr. Charles Mulbah as acting President of the college, who upon his appointment announced the resumption of registration. President Sirleaf closed the college in June this year following a series of protest actions by the students against the Interim Management Team headed by Dr. Roland Massaquoi.
