At a time our country needs leadership with conscience, truth and empathy, God has raised you, Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, to go occupy the office of the Vice President, in the next NDC government, come January 2021.
Your preferment is the first of its kind and brings emancipation to our long suffering women, gives inspiration to our daughters and brings hope to victims of oppression in this country.
May my God be your guide, as I continue to pray for you.
