    The power of consistent action. Do the big things while they’re small, and do the difficult things while they’re easy.

    25 years after my last Shotokan black belt test, my decision to resume testing this year paid off. I earned my 3rd Dan Black Belt with the Ghana Karate-do Federation in June. I look forward to opening up a dojo for students, staff and faculty #atAshesi next year!

    This was Ashesi's campus in late 2001, with a few months to go before we would welcome our first students on March 4th 2002. After having failed to raise funds to build our permanent campus, we made the choice to start here rather than abandon the cause we had taken up.

    When I worked on dial-up technology at Microsoft, we could not have imagined that the internet would become what it is today; #web30 and the evolution of internet tech is a great testament to how much can be achieved through collaborative effort and knowledge sharing.

    Ghana’s democracy has had many milestones, but the establishment of our fourth republic and Rawlings’ role in it will be one of our history’s most important ones. He will be an unforgettable figure. My condolences to the entire Rawlings family on this loss.

    Higher Ed institutions in Africa continue to show, that with the right resources, we will have significant impact on the growth and wellbeing of the world. Glad to see Ashesi community recognised as a leading example for our commitment to this effort. Here’s to the journey ahead!

    There are times when it seems like "Mission: Impossible." But we must believe that Africa’s young people are smart; that if we involve them in their education, help them build character and give them skills that enable them to contribute in solving problems, magic will happen.
    Under Ashesi’s Honour Code, exams on campus have no supervisors. Students pledge to hold themselves to account; to not cheat or tolerate those who do. The Code encourages students to own their ethical posture, and to do the right thing even when no one is watching. #atAshesi
