Gyemang, represented by his deputy, Mr. James Julson, said the institution would do everything within its power to ensure that the students maximise the benefits of the partnership.

He said the school accepted the partnership as sought by the non-governmental organisation (NGO), because it offers courses on conflict management and peace studies.
