My greatest appreciation and thanks go to God Almighty for making it
possible for me to complete this journey successfully. The Akans of Ghanaian have a
saying that goes like this: ―se nnipa ye adea ose ayeyi,‖ which literally means ―when a
person does well, she or he deserves a praise.‖ It is within this context that I like to
express my profound gratitude to a number of individuals who have been inspirational
to this work.
