He noted King Amugi of the Ga state, King Ghartey of Winneba and King Agyeman I of the Ashanti kingdom (all of Blessed memory) who made God the head of their kingdom and thus counted as one of the kings who ensured massive development in their respective kingdoms. Dr. Tetteh therefore advised Ghanaians to also endeavour to elect a God fearing leader who would help unearth God's plan for the country. Osabarim Kwesi Atta II, President of the Central Regional House of Chiefs commended Dr. Tetteh for his contribution to the development of the nation,adding, "you have been an ambassador both at home and abroad". He urged Ghanaians to exercise maximum circumspection in the selection of a leader.
