Mr. Kofi Dzamesi, Volta Regional Minister, who described her as a hardworking woman, urged her to galvanize the people to speed up the development of district. He urged the assembly members to sustain support for the DCE as shown in the massive approval of her nomination by collaborating with her in formulating and implementing workable policies for the good of the district.
