Speaking to host Kwami Sefa Kayi on Peace FM's ''Kokrokoo'', Dr. Otchere-Ankrah sermonized Dr. Owusu Afriyie Akoto to humble himself.
He recounted that there are lots of disturbing complaints about the character of the Agric Minister and called on him to change his character.
Dr. Otchere-Ankrah stressed; "You don't lose anything if you humble yourself. You better humility, not through humiliation . . . There's one thing being assertive and being proud. They're two distinct things . . . We must all humble ourselves.''
" ...what do you lose if you're humble?" he asked.
