The first is our membership drive to register a minimum of 10,000 members,\u201d he disclosed.<\/p>\n<p><b>Who is Dr. Eleblu?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Eleblu is the son of a former independent parliamentary candidate in North Tongu, Christopher Kofi Eleblu, who previously worked as the Director of Internal Audit at the Ministry of Health.<\/p>\n<p>On a fully sponsored scholarship from the University of Ghana and the French Embassy in Ghana, he got a PhD in Plant Biology from the Universite\u0301 Paris Sud 11, Orsay, France, after graduating with BSc and MPhil degrees in Agricultural Science from the University of Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>He is currently a senior lecturer at the Biotechnology Centre and the Coordinator of Research Programmes at the University of Ghana\u2019s West Africa Centre for Crop Improvement (WACCI).<\/p>\n<p>He has served as the principal investigator on many scientific research projects and has managed project teams to train over 4,000 farmers and 300 extension workers across West Africa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
