School honours three past lecturers

Accra (Greater Accra), 9 March '99- The School of Administration, University of Ghana, Legon, on Monday commissioned three ''special facilities'' in recognition of the meritorious service by three former lecturers. A computer centre, a library and a hall were posthumously named after Dr. Alex Donkor and Professors Kwame Efah Adjei and James Berko Appiah-Pippim. Mrs Naadu Mills, wife of the Vice President who unveiled plaques in honour of the three former lecturers, said the initiative by the School to honour past members of staff "is refreshing and welcome". "As a nation we some times neglect to give recognition to our heroes who have devoted their lives serving their nation and people. "But we need to do this in order to identify those of our citizens who deserve to be role models whom our children can emulate. "Even though the three lecturers died rather young, they left behind their mothers who had toiled to make them great men". Mrs Mills said she acknowledged that it is a common feature among Ghanaian women who toil to educate their children to become responsible citizens and congratulated mothers of Ghana for the tremendous sacrifices they have made for the advancement of their children.
