Hon. Nii Lartey Ollenu, former DCE for Amansie West said in his address that showing love to children especially the vulnerable is their heartbeat.
“We have much love for children. They are so dear to us”, he remarked.
Making inference from the biblical adage that ” service to Man is a service to God”, he indicated that any support offered to children equates ones love for God and that doing that is reciprocated with much blessings from God.
Premised on the foregoing, he said he and Hon. Yentumi have developed much passion vis-a-vis offering support to the vulnerable in society.
Hon. Frederick Kwadwo Nkansah Yentumi reiterated same in his address, saying so much blessings follow every support given to the vulnerable and that a prayer support offered by children owing to the kindness shown to them does a lot for the giver.
Mr. Yentumi mentioned that he was ones a child and the support of someone during his childhood made him who he is today.
He therefore called on the well-to-dos to shun limiting the enjoyment of their wealth to only their families.
“When you are rich, you must reach out to the vulnerable within and outside your family circle”, he challenged.
