The University of Ghana will hold a vigil in honour of the late Professor Marian Ewurama Addy who died at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital a few weeks ago.

The vigil to be held on Friday, February 28, will be followed by a pre-burial ceremony on March 1 at the Christ the King Anglican Church at the University of Ghana, Legon Campus.

Burial and thanksgiving service will follow immediately at the same venue.

The remains of the late Professor will then be sent to her hometown in the Central Region for burial.

The late Professor Ewurama Addy was a biochemist and the first female full professor in the Sciences at the University of Ghana.

She was also the first hostess of the National Math and Science Quiz aired on GTV and chaired various boards and committees including the government’s Committee on Salaries and Emoluments.
