\u201cWe are not just going to work in Ejisu, the entire Ashanti Region is going to be on our shoulders, and we are going to make sure to work hard to break the 8.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are going to do that through one-on-one, room-to-room campaign, church-to-church campaign, Mosque-to-mosque campaign, and it will be hard work from now until we meet the target,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
