The African Agribusiness Consortium (AAC), a subsidiary of the Jospong Group of Companies, celebrated the return of 118 Ghanaian postgraduate scholars who completed master’s and doctoral programmes in Agriculture and Environmental Sciences at RUDN University under the AAC-RUDN Scholarship Programme. The scholars, who specialised in various agricultural disciplines, were honoured at a Welcome Dinner and Awards Night held at the AH Hotel in East Legon, Accra, on Saturday, August 1, 2026.

AAC's CEO, Dr Mrs Adelaide Siaw Agyepong, emphasized the significance of the occasion, stating that it was a fulfilling moment for her career and praised the scholars for their academic excellence and character. She urged them to remain humble and become ambassadors of excellence, contributing to Ghana's socio-economic transformation.
