The last one we saw last year was something else. I think that will pass as the biggest gathering ever in the history of this country. I don’t think any football match or event has come close to that. It’s a testament to the love people have for you,” he stated.
“We are ready to collaborate with you and support not just you but your other colleagues in the industry. It’s all about Ghana, and we’re advancing the Ghana agenda,” he added.
