Cambridge awards Kpoh

Accra, Aug. 15, GNA – Cambridge International College, The United Kingdom (UK) on Tuesday in Accra conferred honorary Masters’ Degree in Business Administration (MDA) on Mr Napoleon Kpoh, General Secretary of the Industrial and Commercial Workers Union (ICU). Mr Kpoh is the first Ghanaian to receive the award following a successful completion of a Distance training programme he undertook with the Collage.

The College for the last 10 years had bestowed such award on only five personalities; the Vice President of Sudan; two distinguished Professors, one from Malaysia and the other from Egypt and lastly a Cameroonian.

Conferring the award, Mr David Lawson, Vice President of the College, said the College appreciated the hard work and dedication of Mr Kpoh.

He said the award should inspire workers of the ICU to also take the advantage to enrol in the College. Mr Lawson announced the College would sponsor 10 other workers of the ICU for a year.

He said the College had also identified a women’s group, Aloyi Women Foundation in Kpando that was engaged in poverty reduction projects and that 10 members of that group would be sponsored in the distance programme. The leader of the group, Mama Ahaliwoe, Queenmother of Aloyi, Kpando and the head of Kpando Secondary School (KPASEC) Visual Art Department, received a handshake from Mr Lawson. Mr Kpoh said he saw the award as an honour to the ICU and urged workers to rise above challenges. He said anyone in leadership position should consider it as an opportunity to render selfless service. 15 Aug 06
