The university will encourage and give you all the support you need to excel,” he stated.

Prof. Adjepong urged the students to abide by the rules and regulations of the university to enable them to enjoy their stay on the campus, stressing that, “although we offer  liberal education, we do not compromise on our rules and regulation”.
