He also added that he was going to build more schools for the less privileged in the country.

“I'm definitely building more schools for the less fortunate kids but for the adults, I'm thinking about a few things.

“I'll talk to some folks in the states and see if we can build a huge factory that could employ about 10k or more college graduates in Ghana, Nigeria and Liberia (sic),” he tweeted.

On January 3, 2023, Michael Blackson, commissioned his newly built school in his hometown, Agona Nsaba, in the Central Region.
