Host, Samson Ayenini sat with his panelists to discuss a number of topical issues that happened in the country this week.
One major topic for discussing was the brouhaha surrounding the 'renaming' of the University of Ghana. President Akufo-Addo has come under a lot of criticism about the renaming of the University of Ghana.
The president told an audience at the launch of an Endowment Fund to commemorate the school’s 70th anniversary that: “It will be wholly appropriate and not at all far-fetched to describe Joseph Boakye Danquah as the founder of this University.”
In the president’s view, the British colonialists who built the university were inspired by J.B. Danquah, because they initially intended to build for British West Africa, a single university in Nigeria.
President Akufo-Addo has been trolled and criticised by critics and historian who said the President didn't get his fact right, about possibly renaming the university after his uncle, especially coming on the heels of the recent renaming of the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) after its founder.
