He revealed that though the task is daunting, with discipline and hard work, he will accomplish more feats.

 

Mr. Bawa stated that the language barrier is a big challenge to him and other colleagues studying in China but this has even encouraged him to learn and to do more research work.

Mr. Mbage Bawa, in his final words, encouraged colleague lecturers that ‘’everything is possible’’, so they should work hard and be determined to take up any task and uphold the good name of UEW and Ghana as a whole.
