$30m China grant insufficient for Damongo university project – Haruna Iddrisu

Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu has disclosed that the US$30 million grant secured from China for the proposed University of Science and Technology in Damongo will not be sufficient to fully finance the project.

The Government of Ghana secured the US$30 million grant from China last year to support the commencement of construction of the university.

According to the Education Minister, however, establishing and equipping a new university would require more than US$100 million.
