He is the highest recipient of awards in four decades at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).
The
24-year-old Charles Dzugah’s broke the 40-year old record by raking in 8
out of the 15 available awards at the end of his seven-year-course at
the university.
He received the awards which included the Dr.
Wereko-Brobby and Dr. Kwame Addo Kuffuor awards, at the induction
ceremony at KNUST.
The interesting twist to Charles Dzugah’s
intriguing story is how he has maintained his consistent academic
excellence from the basic to tertiary level of education.
Reminiscing
about awards he swept during the induction ceremony, Charles said on
the Traffic Avenue on Citi FM: “It was a blur of emotions on that day.
It just happened so fast… I don’t remember what I was thinking but I was
just excited.”
He dispelled notions people had about him that he was the “serious type,” who is always behind his books studying.
“No I have a lot of fun. I party and chill with my friends while I was campus,” he revealed.
“I sometimes went to the club and hang out with friends after studying,” he added.
