Speaking both as a traditional leader and a concerned Ghanaian citizen, Neenyi Ghartey VII, called on the youth to resist becoming instruments of violence and instead become agents of unity and development. He urged elders, government agencies and civil society to intensify efforts for peacebuilding, describing the situation in Bawku as “not a local issue, but a national responsibility.”

“This is a national wound that requires our collective healing. Peace is not weakness. Peace is strength, dignity and vision,” he declared.

The Chancellor praised the graduates for their perseverance, determination, and academic excellence, urging the newly graduated Class to step boldly into the future as responsible citizens, ethical professionals and ambassadors of peace and progress.

“You have accomplished a noteworthy milestone by demonstrating perseverance and a positive attitude throughout your academic journey. Today is a testament to your commitment, the many hours of study, teamwork and dedication that have brought you here,” he stated.

The Chancellor urged the graduating class to think innovatively, act ethically and lead compassionately in their chosen careers. “Go forth and be the difference. Be the embodiment of the knowledge, values and vision that ��ɫ��Ƶhas instilled in you,” he charged them.

Neenyi Ghartey VII also took a moment to commend UEW’s dedicated faculty, whose mentorship and academic rigour, he said, played a pivotal role in shaping the graduates’ success. “You have not only imparted knowledge but also guided students through challenges, preparing them for life beyond the classroom,” he acknowledged.

He further extended warm appreciation to the graduates' families, friends, and mentors recognising their sacrifices, prayers and encouragement throughout the academic journey. “The joy of our graduands today is a shared testament to your support,” he said.

The Chancellor encouraged graduates to focus on impact rather than accolades, reminding them that their legacy would be defined by the contributions they make to their communities and country. “Your education has equipped you to be change agents. Let your work reflect the values of honesty, respect and responsibility,” he said.  

He concluded with a call to action, challenging graduates to build meaningful relationships and pursue careers aligned with their passions and strengths.

“May the knowledge and values instilled in you here at ��ɫ��Ƶserve as a beacon of hope and progress. Congratulations once again. Go and make a difference,” Neenyi Ghartey VII remarked.

With his words resonating throughout the congregation, the Chancellor’s address captured the essence of the day: a celebration not just of academic success but of leadership, service and national unity.
