“On behalf of the entire membership of the party, I wish to congratulate you for your nomination and we wish you well as you go through the various processes to assume full responsibility of your office”, he opined.
He expressed the hope that his new appointment will create greater opportunities for the youth to motivate them to do more for the party to retain power in election 2024.
Mr Kofie also commended the Western Regional Executives and the National Executives of the party for the confidence repose in Lawyer Kojo Kum thereby nominating him for the position and avered that their efforts would not be undermined.
