During an interview on Joy Prime, Guru reminisces about his active engagement in university life, highlighting his contributions to Hall Week celebrations and collaborations with the Student Representative Council (SRC) to orchestrate successful events, notably featuring Mister Drew.
"The University of Ghana has always been my dream, and being there feels like a dream come true.
