Winneba, Dec 18, GNA – The National President of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), Dr. Samuel Asiedu-Addo, has said the association was poised to foster close collaboration with University authorities to market their institutions to the outside world. He therefore appealed to UTAG members to remain committed and dedicated to duty in the quest to produce the high quality manpower needed for accelerated national development.
Dr. Asiedu-Addo, a senior lecturer at the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), said this during a ceremony to inaugurate a 15-seater bus for the UEW branch of UTAG.

The Vice-Chancellor of the University, Prof. Akwasi Asabere-Ameyaw who inaugurated the bus, praised the effort of the branch for showing the way as they are the first in the country to buy their own vehicle.
