The University of Cape Coast (UCC) has refuted claims that Prof. Johnson Nyarko Boampong's appointment as Vice-Chancellor has been terminated.

A letter allegedly signed by Prof. Harold S. Amonoo-Kuofi, Chairman of the University Council, suggested that Prof. Boampong’s tenure had ended.

However, UCC’s Director of Public Affairs, Major Kofi Baah-Bentum, clarified in a statement on Thursday that the University Council has not met to make any decisions regarding the Vice-Chancellor’s position. T

he most recent Council meeting on July 30, 2024, did not address this matter.

UCC is advising the university community and the public to disregard the termination notice.

“Council has not met to discuss or take such a decision and that, at its last meeting held on Tuesday, 30th July 2024, records available indicate that matters discussed and decided upon did not include the Vice-Chancellor’s tenure.

“The University community and the general public are, therefore, entreated to disregard the publication.”
