"I know Asenso-Boakye very well, some of us taught him to become who he is today; he is a senior in government but when he comes to this constituency, he is a small boy," the MP said when he addressed Assembly Members in the Bantama Sub-Metro in Kumasi as an invited guest at a ceremony to hand over some 200 units of street light bulbs donated to the Sub-Metro by Asenso-Boakye.

He added: "Bantama MPs cannot always be back-benchers, though we contribute some of the largest chunks of votes for the NPP at every election; our MPS, like the NPP government, need at least 20 years at the job in order to bring about the massive development we all hope for."
