Despite the country's current economic challenges, Professor Nana Aba Appiah Amfo, Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana, has warned Ghanaians to expect an economic rebound.

The linguistics professor said in a greeting for the new year that despite the government's difficulties, Ghanaians shouldn't give up hope for better days to come.

“Ladies and gentlemen, it is a fact that our economy is not in good shape, we’re in crisis as alluded to by his excellency the president of the republic and confirmed by the honourable minister of finance a few weeks ago. In spite of this, let us not be in despair, rather let’s approach 2023 with optimism and hope, remember, in the miss of adversities lies opportunities. the new year holds a wide expansion of possibilities as the government takes steps to bring the economy back on track, I urge all of us to work individually and collectively in whatever capacity we can to ensure that we build a resilient and robust economy,” she said.

She also urged all parties involved, both internal and external, to support the University of Ghana's mission of encouraging technologically advanced, humanist extension activities, teaching and learning, and administrative operations.

“We were able to provide our first batch of needy students with laptops, I entreat both internal and external stakeholders, individuals and institutions to support the noble vision and give the student an exciting memorable learning experience,” she added.
