Dr Yaw Osei Adutwum, the Minister of Education, has challenged Ghanaian students not to limit themselves in what they can do but rather go all out as they aspire to greater heights.
He explained that once they set out to study so hard, there was no way they could limit themselves in what they could do since studying hard created diverse opportunities for them after their studies.
