Even when he lost against me and he later became Regional NADMO, anything I needed, he made sure I get it. He has really served the Party.
Today, I am happy for him that he is the new MCE for Ayawaso Central. All the advice I want to give to you all is that patience pays”, Hon. Henry Quartey emphasized.
