Zongo Born will be President or Vice President One Day - Ambassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu
The Founder and Chairman of the Afro-Arab Group of Companies, Ambassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu made this statement when he addressed the gathering at the National Mosque, Accra where he joined the participants to mark the International Youth Day celebrated across the globe.
According to him, it will not be out of place for a 'born and bred' resident in a 'Zongo' Community to become the leader of the country like any other Ghanaian to change the perception held by many people.
I am bassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu who serves as the Youth Ambassador for Peace and Development.
"I wish to borrow some words from my good friends Former President His Excellency President Mahama and Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and I quote 'Do or die' a Zongo born will be President or Vice President some
day, 'it is possible' inshallah".
The theme for the program was 'The Future of Zongo Youth'.
The Minister for Youth and Sports, Mustapha Ussif who graced the
occasion commended Ambassador Alhaji Salamu Amadu for such an initiative to celebrate the youth from the 'Zongos' and Inner Cities.
Pius Enam Hadzide, the Chief Executive Officer of the National Youth Authority for his part said the youth were key stakeholders in the
development process of the country hence none of them would be left out
as the government continues to fashion out policies and programs geared toward their development.
The chairman of the event, and the Chairman of the Hajj Board, Alhaji Ben Abdallah Banda also lauded the work of the CEO of the Afro-Arab Group for his continuous support to the youth especially residents in the 'Zongo' and Inner Cities while urging other others in similar positions to emulate him
