Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, Vice President, has presented the University of Ghana Business School with 100 laptop computers (UGBS).
The donation fulfilled Dr. Bawumia’s earlier pledge to the UGBS to support the School’s One Student, One Laptop initiative, which was announced by the Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana to advance digitisation on campus.
Dr. Bawumia presented the 100 laptops during the launch of the UGBS’s 60th anniversary celebration on Wednesday, May 11, saying he was touched and inspired by the bold initiative, which led to his decision to donate the laptops to support the initiative.

“I was so inspired that that day I promised 100 laptops to the university of Ghana business school, and by the grace of God, I am presenting the laptops to the School today,” Dr. Bawumia said.
The Vice President noted that more laptops would be needed to make the initiative successful, and he therefore called for support, especially UGBS alumni, to donate laptops towards the campaign.
While congratulating the UGBS on attaining 60 years, Dr. Bawumia commended the School, whose alumni, he said, are contributing significantly to the development of the nation.
As part of its 60th anniversary celebration, the UGBS has line up year-long activities.
