" We have heard with profound happiness and joy the bold move by His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo –Addo, following his appointment of our beloved brother, leader, mentor and associate,  Boniface Abubakari, to head a newly created Ministry in the interest of all, but more beneficial to Zongo as a whole."

This was contained in a media release signed by Alhaji Inusah Sittu Damballe IV, and copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra. They praised the visionary leadership being exhibited by the Government, saying it was highly appreciated.   The statement called on the Ministerial nominee not to relent on his charged efforts to bring light, prosperity, success, progress and development to the people of the Zongos, including the Tatale Zongo.

The statement appealed to the potential Minister to tackle low-level education, unemployment, neglect in political leadership and poor healthcare, as some of the salient issues upon assumption of office. "The Zongo Chief in collaboration with the Chief Imam, Council of Imams, ZongoYouth and the Islamic Community (Ummah) once again extend greetings and warm congratulations to you and the President for the confidence reposed in you to help uplift the falling standards in the Zongo communities nationwide.”
