On Friday, 13th February 2026, the South Sudanese Students’ Association at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) proudly hosted a vibrant and memorable welcoming party for their freshmen — the Class of 2029. The event marked the beginning of an exciting academic journey for the new students and served as a warm introduction to both the university community and the South Sudanese family on campus.
The ceremony was filled with joy, unity, and cultural pride. From inspiring speeches and words of encouragement to music, dance, and social interactions, the atmosphere reflected the strong bond that exists among South Sudanese students at KNUST. The freshmen were formally welcomed and assured that they now belong to a supportive community that will stand by them throughout their years of study.
To the Class of 2029, congratulations on earning your place at this prestigious institution. You have joined not only one of Africa’s leading universities but also a vibrant association that values excellence, unity, leadership, and cultural identity. May your time at KNUST be marked by academic success, personal growth, meaningful friendships, and impactful achievements.
The association also extends its deepest appreciation to the continuing students whose presence, contributions, and enthusiasm made the event truly successful. Your commitment to welcoming your junior brothers and sisters demonstrates the spirit of togetherness and responsibility that defines this community. By showing up in large numbers, offering support, and creating a lively atmosphere, you ensured that the freshmen’s first major social experience on campus was unforgettable.
Special thanks go to the organizers, volunteers, and everyone who contributed in diverse ways — financially, logistically, and morally — to make the program a success. Your dedication and teamwork turned the occasion into a beautiful celebration of unity and progress.
As the new academic chapter begins, may the Class of 2029 feel encouraged, empowered, and motivated to pursue excellence while upholding the values of the association and representing South Sudan with pride.
Once again, welcome to KNUST, welcome to the family, and welcome to a future full of possibilities.
Congratulations to the Class of 2029 — your journey starts now. 🎉
