She becomes the first Ghanaian woman to be conferred with the
distinguished title.

Officer, said as the first woman to achieve this remarkable feat, the
Ministry was congratulating and commending her for her dedicated
service and contributions towards academia and scholarship, within and

in their various fields of endeavours,” the Ministry said.
