    Prof Afoakwa is a decent technocratic and outstand8ng administrator. His work speak for itself at Ghana Communication Technology University. Why should he be forced out when his tenure has not ended?

    What about Richard Ahiagbah?

  • Kk 4 months ago

    Hmmm
    As already posted has it got to do with the two different names. What has happened is absolute lawlessness. The man Afoakwa is good in what he does and does not deserve such a treatment. This nonsense got to stop.

    Politisation has been injected into academia,which is poisonous. In ghana one becomes chancellor depending on what party one belongs to. Merit is thrown to the hyenas.
