Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) running mate of Mr. John Dramani Mahama in the 2020 General Election and first Female Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Coast (UCC) has urged university students in the country to be cautious of what they do with their lives and times on campus as it may have far reaching consequences for their future.
She said that as students they were in their stage of growing physically, mentally, socially and emotionally and should strive to nurture these into positive actions and outcomes.
Prof. Naana Opoku-Agyemang, former Minister of Education said these at a Relationship Talk Show recently which was organised by the Law Students Union of the UCC on campus on the topic, “From Classroom to Loveroom”
She again advised the students to support one another and never lose focus on their education so as not to become liability to society, and burden on their partners.
The law students demonstrated their appreciation to the former Vice-Chancellor by honouring her with a citation for her “well-meaning, selfless and dedicated nature especially towards student growth and excellence.”
The citation continued “as far as students are concerned, your motherly instincts lead the way, allowing you to make lasting impacts in the lives of people like us.”
The students praised the professor for accepting, at a rather short notice, to guide and guard their lives and career paths during the Relationship Seminar.
