Pentecost University launches bachelor of law programme
When you separate the two, you will practise law to please people, but we are looking forward to a generation of lawyers who will practise law for the law-giver, God.
The Pentecost University has launched the Bachelor of law programme as part of its vision to develop and expand existing faculties and departments.
Professor Kwabena Agyapong-Kodua, the Vice-Chancellor of the University, speaking at the launch of the new programme, said the new model of legal education would be underpinned by the fear of God and academic excellence.
“When you separate the two, you will practise law to please people, but we are looking forward to a generation of lawyers who will practise law for the law-giver, God. That is also why our approach to law is reflective of the law-giver, who is God Himself,” he said on Wednesday.
The Vice-Chancellor said the University trained students through Christian mentorship programmes, assembly sessions, devotions and other spiritual activities which suitably balance their academic development.
“We believe these are the people who truly become the voice of the rejected and link humankind to their maker. We believe that virtues without regard for the source of virtues breed subjectivity which intends diminish the essence of the source.”
