The health walk that has been described by many as the best ever to have happened in Asuogyaman, was organized by the Constituency Executives with sponsorship from Mr. Paul Asare Ansah, the immediate past Director General of Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority.

Addressing the charged crowd, Mr. Paul Asare Ansah thanked the participants for their massive turnout and entreated them to rally behind the NPP government in its quest to deliver on its promises to the people.
