I take this opportunity to thank them collectively for their support and the courtesies they have accorded me and the kind words they have written to celebrate my 20th anniversary.<\/p>\n<p>I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all Ghanaians for their sympathies, prayers and support when I lost my mother, Asantehemaa Nana Afia Kobi Serwaa Ampem II in November 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, to my dear wife Julia, let me thank you publicly for the love and support you have given me throughout our marriage.
