Professor Isaac Buaben leads the University of Cape Coast satellite location at Nyakrom. He asked donors worldwide to help build more student housing and classrooms at the growing campus. The facility needs better buildings to serve more students who want to enroll.

The campus teaches 325 students who study nursing and nutrition programs. These degree courses mirror what the main Cape Coast campus offers to students there. Buaben wants to accept 200 additional students when the next term begins.

He called on Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang and the Ghana Education Trust Fund to provide financial support. The director also asked police officials to create a security post at the school grounds. This would protect both teachers and students from safety problems.

Nursing instructor Yvonne Berko spoke about another campus need during the same meeting with reporters Monday. She asked municipal leader Eric Gyamfi Odoom to install street lights along the road that leads to the university. Students struggle to walk safely after dark when they attend evening classes.

The Nyakrom branch serves students from Agona Nyakrom and nearby towns throughout the Central Region. Many local residents can attend college closer to home because of this campus location. The school plans to stay open and expand its programs for future students.
