Head of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Ghana Professor Samuel Kojo Kwofie, has challenged graduates of the British International School, East Legon Hills to embrace technology, uphold integrity, and lead with purpose as they step into a rapidly changing world.
Delivering a keynote address that blended futuristic vision with academic wisdom, at the school’s 2025 Graduation and Awards Ceremony, Prof. Kwofie captivated the audience with a bold vision of tomorrow, where success belongs to those who invest in knowledge, networks, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
“Eat AI, drink AI, breathe AI, talk AI, and live AI,” Prof. Kwofie urged. “Those who invest in AI today will surely reap the benefits in every field tomorrow.”
Highlighting the significance of moral leadership, Prof. Kwofie drew from the mottos of prestigious universities across the globe, emphasizing values such as integrity, hope, knowledge, and purpose.
“Success in any intellectual endeavour is of little value if it is not founded on high moral values,” he said, referencing the motto of the University of Ghana, “Integri Procedamus” – “Let us proceed in integrity.”
He reminded the students that while academic excellence is critical, it must be paired with ethical leadership and a commitment to lifelong learning.
Prof. Samuel Kojo Kwofie emphasized that meaningful relationships built during school are long-term investments and key to future opportunities. He also delivered a simple yet powerful success formula: “If you want to be a transformative leader, read, read, and read. Learning never ends.”
Looking ahead, Prof. Kwofie urged the graduates to embrace Artificial Intelligence as a tool for global change. He cited its growing applications in health, education, agriculture, finance, and more.
“The world belongs to the younger generations like you. The future looks bright if you take advantage of all the opportunities AI brings,” he said.
Referencing the transformational capabilities of AI, from robotic surgery across continents to digital education platforms, he encouraged every student, regardless of career path, to explore how AI can enhance their goals.
Quoting former Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Prof. Kwofie reminded the Class of 2025 that “If your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough.”
He closed the address with a rallying affirmation that brought the room to its feet: “The future is ours! We are going to lead! We are the leaders of tomorrow! Success today and success tomorrow!”
The Graduation and Awards Ceremony marked a pivotal moment for the students of British International School, who have spent over a decade learning, growing, and preparing to take on the world.
With the inspirational words of Prof. Kwofie still echoing in their minds, the Class of 2025 left the event with more than just certificates, they left with a challenge to shape the future.
