“To me, leadership is not about waiting 50 years to make an impact. The time is now. My commitment to education and youth empowerment remains stronger than ever, and with the support of H.E. John Dramani Mahama, we will continue to invest in the future of our young people,” he assured.
The new MP urged the students to take advantage of the government’s support and study hard to achieve their dreams, pledging his support to brilliant students who aspire to reach higher heights in life.
