NAPS PRESS: Did you choose philosophy or
philosophy chose you?
Gifty: Philosophy chose me but over time I've fallen so in love with it. NAPS PRESS: What do you love about philosophy?

NAPS PRESS: How has philosophy helped you in performing your duty as the Vice President?
Gifty: Philosophy has a way of broadening your mind and unconsciously it affects almost every aspect of your life. Philosophy had helped me see things from a different perspective and this has helped me as a leader to maneuver through difficult situations and tasks.
NAPS PRESS: What made you come up with the decision of running for the VP of the association?
Gifty: I've always had the desire to serve in the department. When I was a fresher, I experienced how the excos paid attention to and helped the freshers, I wanted to do the same and give back to the department
NAPS PRESS: Why the VP and not any other post?
Gifty: I chose the position of the VP because I felt it was a position that was at the centre, I could work hand in hand with the treasurer, the president, the general secretary and even the social director. I wanted to be able to serve to the fullest.
NAPS PRESS: And how has it been so far?

NAPS PRESS: Interesting facts about you

NAPS PRESS: How has it been juggling school and your position as the VP?
Gifty: So far, it's been fine, at first it was challenging because 300lvl is already a challenging academic year and I was still striving to do my duties to the fullest but I have come to adjust to Juggling both successfully.
