He made this donation during his visit to King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II of the Ga Mantse which was a historic indication of cooperation and unification between the Asante and Ga kingdoms.
“I want to donate an amount of GHC500,000,00 to the Ga Education Fund to help in the education of less-privileged Ga children,” he announced through an interpreter.
The Asantehene thanked the Ga State profusely in his speech for their cordial welcome. He underlined the significance of harmony among all of the nation’s chiefs as well as between the Ga and Ashanti peoples.

“The people of Ga and Ashanti must unite to develop our communities. All Ga chiefs must rally behind Nii Teiko Tsuru II. Unity and development must be our focus for the sake of our children.The current battle should be for development in the interest of future generations.I am grateful for your presence during my 25th anniversary celebration. Your display of love and support is reciprocated by this gesture,” he said.
