On July 25, we visited ORID (Office of Research, Innovation & Development) and IAS (Institute of African Studies) at UG. We met Prof. George Obeng Adjei and Mrs. Afua Yeboah at ORID. And at IAS, Prof. Dzodzi Tsikata (Director), Dr. Nanbigne Edward, Dr. Alhassan Osman, and Dr. Stephen Acheampong welcomed us.
