In his view, the effective performance of their duty of creating sustainable jobs for the generality of the Ghanaian youth is a huge contribution towards building a great and prosperous country.

‘’We want you to continue that way and to say that what they’re doing here today, putting up an office, an infrastructure, office is all very important, but the most important thing is the work that will be done when these offices have been put up. That is what I want to leave with you.’’ President Akufo-Addo added.
