"The expectations on this ceremony are high but the committee members have put in their best so far to exceed it," Aps. Dr. Tsekpoe said.

He added that "it is not over until it is, so we will not rest until the ceremony comes out successfully."

The ceremony will mark the beginning of the office of Rev. Prof. Kodua as the new Chief Executive of the University.

It will be witnessed by high-profile guests in academia, the diplomatic community, and the Church of Pentecost and will take place in the James McKeown Auditorium on campus.

Prof. Agyapong-Kodua is a pastor and a Chartered Engineer.
