The Manhyia South MP who is also the Energy Minister added ‘’The beauty of Manhyia South is that we are one big family irrespective of our different religious backgrounds and that is our strength which we should always guide and guard. ’’
Dr. Prempeh said he would continue to consult with the Muslim community in the area to fashion out development projects.
‘’As your humble servant, I will always be in touch with you as partners in development so that we can together build Manhyia South to the level it deserves,’’ he said.
‘’The occasion of the Eid al-Adha, may his compassionate Allah accept your sacrifice and offer peace, live and unity. Celebrate in moderation and care,’’ he added.
