He made this call last Saturday while giving an address at the first general meeting of Wassa Amenfi Students Union WASU, UG – Legon Branch as chairman for the occasion.

Mr Kumah emphasised the need for students and youth of Wassa Amenfi to come together and speak in one voice for development and progress for the Wassa people and the youth in particular.

According to Mr Kumah, the youth constitute almost 70% of the population of the three Amenfis and therefore should be given the chance to sit at the table to plan their future.

He believes it is high time students of Wassa origin in various tertiary institutions join forces and undertake impactful initiatives for the Wassa Communities. ‘’We as students owe it a duty to have positive impact on society,’’ he said.

Mr Kumah admonished the students to be proud Wassanians because their ancestors and leaders were great people.

“Don’t shy away from who you are, We Wassa people are from great ancestry, our paramount Chief Tetrete Okuamoah Sekyim II is a great warrior. Be proud of your origin. I am a proud Wassanian, so must you too.’’

Mr Kumah commended the students for organizing such an important meeting and thanked the organizers for acknowledging him as a one of the founding fathers of the Wassa Amenfi Students Union.

He advised the students to be confident and identify themselves as Wassanians wherever they find themselves.

Mr Kumah said his doors are opened for the union and will do anything humanly possible to ensure that the group becomes vibrant and useful to the people of Wassa Amenfi.

The presentation was made to the constituency chairman, Nana Kofi Amankwah, on April 26, 2023, at the construction site.

During the presentation, Kumah highlighted the importance of contributing to the party’s cause and stated that their donation was a gesture of commitment and support for the party’s progress.

He noted that though they are yet to receive any significant offers since the party came to power, they still believe in the party’s mission and vision and will continue to serve and support the party’s cause.

He urged others to follow suit and contribute to the party’s growth in whatever way they can.

Kumah, who will be contesting for the Parliamentary Primaries, emphasized that the NPP is a party worth investing in, and their donation was a step towards building a stronger foundation for the party in the Amenfi East Constituency.

The NPP’s Chairman, Nana Kofi Amankwah, expressed his gratitude to Kumah and his father for their generous donation and commended them for their dedication to the party’s vision.

This donation marks a significant milestone for the NPP, signifying the party’s growth and continued commitment towards the development of the country.

Party leaders encouraged others to contribute towards building a befitting office for the party and a stronger NPP for a better Ghana.

In a statement issued by the group on Thursday, the group named one Frederick Kumah adding that the Social Science degree holder is youthful and believe he is the suitable choice to take the municipality to the next level.

The group cited names like Samuel Abu Jinapor, Kojo Oppong-Nkrumah, Fatimatu Abubakar amongst others as youthful persons in the Ajufo-Addo administration who are working tremendously well.

Highlighting some qualities of Mr Kumah, the group indicated that, “He is a smart, intelligent, competent and hardworking young man who has demonstrated unalloyed loyalty, total commitment and resilience in championing the course of the NPP in Amenfi East and at the national level (through communication) since 2011.”

The group further added that appointing their nominee will help the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to regain and maintain its grip of the youth base in the area.

“We believe this is the perfect time for the NPP to demonstrate good faith and acknowledge the contributions and sacrifices of the youth in the Amenfi East constituency over the past 10 years.

“We are of a very firm belief that the party’s leadership from the Constituency, Regional National and the President hear our humble plea,” they added.
