GIMPA honours McDan boss

Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration ( GIMPA) faculty of law has honored Dr Daniel McKorley, CEO of McDan Group of companies in a ceremony at the institute on Friday.

The prestigious award was in recognition of the business mogul's immense contribution to development of the law faculty in particular and Ghana in general.

The McDan group boss has constructed a modern day Moot Court , the very first in the country for the higher learning institution which has been named after him.

A citation recognising his good works read “…your quest for partnership has seen you support worthy causes that nurture sectional and national aspirations towards the grand goal.

“Your devotion and belief in the goals of the faculty of law and the larger GIMPA are the reasons for your endowment of the first ever moot court in Ghana, a feat that only further testifies to your enduring legacy and standing.”

It added “having distinguished yourself in business, you have shown yourself truly committed to the national cause. Your promotion of many goals and values today sees you at the frontiers of the march towards maintaining and improving on GIMPA’s value of excellence and institutional actualization,… congratulations.”

Dr McKorley, an alumnus of GIMPA in his speech said our job as private enterprise is to support institutions like GIMPA, you have set high standards and I know this facility will help those virtues and even higher.

I was inspired by the way our judicial system is making strides- expediting the cases and all that.

Am honored to receive this from non other institution like GIMPA, am most grateful.

Rector of GIMPA Professor Franklyn Manu commended Dr McKorley and Chief Justice Georgina Woode for their respective contributions for taking law at the institute a notch higher.
