Paa Kwesi Nduom Gives First Graduates Of His School $1000 Each To Start Life

Paa Kwesi Nduom has given $1,000 each to the first batch of graduates of his newly established school (Nduom School of Business and Technology).
The Nduom School of Business & Technology (NSBT) celebrated a significant milestone as it hosted its first graduation and third matriculation ceremony at the Ayensudo campus. Led by Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom, the founder and Chairman of the Governing board, the ceremony was marked by the fulfillment of a promise to the institution’s inaugural batch of graduates. Each of the eight graduates was presented with a $1000 cash award as a token of appreciation and support from Dr. Nduom.
Originally, Dr. Nduom had envisioned providing seed funding for small businesses to empower the graduates to embark on entrepreneurial ventures. However, due to the unforeseen challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the decision was made to award cash instead. Dr. Nduom emphasized the significance of entrepreneurship and wise investment, urging the graduates to utilize the funds prudently for endeavors that would yield long-term benefits.
The ceremony was attended by 25 graduates, comprising eight females and 17 males, all of whom achieved varying academic honors. It underscored NSBT’s commitment to academic excellence and societal impact, as evidenced by its partnerships and dedication to the success of its graduates.
