“This gathering is an opportunity to appreciate two of our colleagues who have moved on to new roles.

Samuel Selorm Avotri, Head of the Instructional Design Unit, recalled his working relationship with Christopher Addo. “One thing I will always remember about Chris is his commitment to building the capacity of staff. If you worked with him, you had to learn and grow. He believed in teamwork, and that is something we have all taken with us. 

He was always ready to support others, whether at work or outside work. We will miss him,” he said. Michael Kwasi Anderson’s contributions were also highlighted, with his structured approach to work standing out. 

Selorm shared how Anderson insisted on getting things done the right way. “He always wanted things done properly. If you placed something somewhere, he would ask why it was there and where it was supposed to be. 

He was open and direct, and if you didn’t know him well, you might think he was tough. But when you got close, you saw that he had good intentions and always wanted the best for everyone,” he noted. Oscar Ousseni Ouedraogo, Head of the E-Learning Studios, shared memories of their time working together.

“Our relationship went beyond just work. We argued, we brainstormed, and we learned from each other. Chris was always talking about teamwork, and one of the things we all enjoyed was our lunch gatherings. 

No one was left out. It created a strong bond among us,” he said. Martin Sefa Anno, from the Proctor and Online Assessment Unit, recounted his first encounter with Christopher Addo and how it shaped their working relationship.

“At first, I thought he didn’t like me because he was always on my case. But over time, I realized he just wanted the best for me. He challenged me to improve, and I appreciate that. His leadership has helped me grow professionally,” he shared. 

Professor Eric Appau Asante, Director of the KNUST E-Learning Centre, acknowledged the significance of the occasion, noting that transitions are a natural part of professional growth. “We must celebrate this moment.
