We used to see him cleaning communities, and gutters, and working with the people. So today I decided to organize the people so that we clean the market as you are witnessing. so we have come out stronger”.

Our people need us, I know the entire Ghanaian populace is looking up to us to deliver them from the work of this underdevelopment and hardship we are facing in the economy in Upper Manya”.
