The Minister of State at the Presidency in charge of Special Initiatives and Member of Parliament for Nkoranza South, Emmanuel Kwadwo Agyekum, says more than 100 children in his constituency have been named after him in recognition of his development work.
Speaking on Citi Eyewitness News on Tuesday, November 18, Mr. Agyekum attributed the trend to what he described as his unwavering commitment to improving every community in the constituency.
He said he has built at least one school in each community within Nkoranza South — a feat he believes has deeply resonated with residents.
According to him, his development record has also made party primaries almost redundant in his case, as he often runs unopposed because constituents see no need to challenge him.
Mr. Agyekum added that the confidence his constituents have in his leadership has resulted in many parents naming their children after him.
“They have names, over 100 children after me. My name is Emmanuel Kwadwo Agyekum and it is a fact on the ground. Somebody named four of his children after me,” he stated.
