As a little boy, the late William Ofori-Atta (Paa Willie) showed keen interest in little Sammy. Paa Willie made little Sammy his kid organizer for his religious outreach program at Kyebi. Sammy was tasked to gather his kid-friends on Sunday evenings at Osofo Birikorang Fie, where Paa Willie will use his religious teachings to instill a strong sense of morality, integrity, truthfulness the need to give up oneself for the general good of all into Sammy and his friends. These intangible gifts of virtue have been the defining blocks of Sammy’s unflinching moral and ethical makeup.
