“Our gratitude to the president is profound and in order because by this appointment, the NPP in Tema as a whole has had its sense of belonging to the larger mother party affirmed, and profoundly so,” Nene Ofoe TeyeChu-Agbadiagba said.

According to him, the appointment, “also assuages the frustration of many in Tema who yearned to see Titus Glover play a role in the current government because of his vast experience and dedication.”

President Akufo-Addo this week appointed Daniel Nii Kwartei Titus-Glover as the Deputy Managing Director of the Volta Aluminum Company Limited (VALCO).

The appointment was contained in a letter dated 2 March 2023.

According to Nene Ofoe-Teye, this appointment drafts back one of the best human resources the NPP has into the current governance effort.

“For a long time, many of us were unhappy that this brilliant son of Tema was on reserve. President Akufo-Addo however has proven to be a good coach because he has brought him in to contribute his quota at a time he is really needed most,” Nene Ofoe-Teye said.
