“I am humbled by this honour and extend my profound gratitude to the Komenda Traditional Council and the entire community for their warm welcome and support. Let us continue to stand together and support government efforts as we work to restore Ghana to the status we deserve,” she said.
The colourful enstoolment ceremony, which took place during the Nyeyi Afahye festival, was marked by cultural displays and communal celebrations, symbolizing the strong bond between the Vice President and the people of Komenda.
