He pledged to bring more development to the area through sports, education, and infrastructure projects, citing initiatives such as the construction of schools and health facilities, the development of an ultramodern durbar ground, and the construction of mechanised boreholes for over 100 communities in the Kwahu area.
He advised the children to take their education seriously and avoid all types of social deviance in society.
