“Anybody who knows me knows how I have raised Ghana bodybuilding from zero because there was no bodybuilding association and we fought very hard to get the national sports authority to inaugurate the bodybuilding association in 2007 and from then we have given bodybuilders the hope to achieve their dream. We serve the sports people and we have given them the hope to believe and achieve in sport and this is what we are going to sell to executive members if I am elected. To be honest, I go into elections to let the people decide based on what I have done and what they want me to do for them. And I believe on the day, I will carry the day.” He Said.
