Ghanaians must recognize K. B Asante’s contribution - Nduom

In his Facebook post the Chairman of Groupe Nduom (GN), Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom, said K.B. Asante deserved the full titles ‘Honourable’ and ‘Excellency’.

“He has become an ancestor. In an environment where people talk freely with abandon, not caring who they hurt or the damage they do to the nation, he was a wonderful exception. He did not go quietly and we are grateful for that because he used his voice to teach, to tell Our History and to give leadership when others who also could speak remained silent.”

Dr Nduom described K.B. Asante as an uncompromising patriot.
