“I am deeply proud of Wilfred, Miriam, Theophilus, Suzzy, Andrew, Ruth, Jephthah, Betty and Daniel, and of every MSL student who graduated in Accra on Saturday. Results like these belong first to the students and the work they put in. Our part is to set a high standard and give them tools built for the way they are examined; the achievement is theirs. We are grateful to the Institute of Chartered Accountants, Ghana, for recognising their effort.”
