The Paramount Chief of the Builsa Traditional Area, Nab Azagsuk Azantilow II, has singled out  the NPP Government's flagship Free Senior High School (FSHS) as the "most far-reaching social intervention of our time."

Speaking at Sandema in the Builsa North Constituency on Friday 26th July, 2024 Nab Azantilow had high praise for the "numerous achievements" of the Akufo-Addo/Bawumia Government, but maintained that the policy which has led to an increase of over 600,000 in secondary school enrollment in just seven years trumped them all, given the wide-ranging impact it will have on Ghana's development.

"Your Excellency, I am mindful of the numerous achievements by your government, notably in the areas of health, digital technology, infrastructure among others.

"Notwithstanding it's few challenges, the Free SHS programme remains uncontestably the most far-reaching social intervention of our time, which has also benefitted my traditional area" he maintained.

Dr Bawumia was at the palace of the Overlord of Builsa as part of his constituency-focused nationwide campaign tour, during which he shares his vision for Ghana's with all stakeholders including traditional and religious authorities, the youth and constituency at large.

Describing Dr Bawumia's historic victory in the NPP Presidential primary race as an affirmation of his "sterling qualities as a politician, leader and human being", Nab Azantilow invoked divine blessings on the NPP flagbearer,  saying " As you take your campaign across the country, I want to wish you well. I also pray for Allah's blessings on you personally, your family and members of your campaign team...

"I look forward to meeting you in 2025 as President of the Republic, Insha Allah."
