The Omanhene of the traditional Kumawu area, Barima Safo Tweneboah Kodua, has urged the government to increase its purchase of Kantanka vehicles to allow the company to further expand and create more job opportunities.
He said that once this is done, the government could put in place a system through which groups such as teachers and nurses, among others, could purchase the vehicles for rent.
“I am impressed with what Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka has done and I am very happy about that and I think the government needs to support him by all possible means,” he said.
Barima Tweneboah Kodua said this at the 40th Kristo Asafo Tech Expo held last Sunday, December 27, 2020 in Accra.
The event featured the exhibition of some vehicles and items manufactured by the group during the last 40 years.
It was on the theme: “Position the Church in the construction of the nation – Solving the social problem through religion, science and technology”.
At the event, Kantanka Automobile presented a van to the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) to reinforce its fleet of vehicles.
Barima Tweneboah said that Africans were also given the creativity and knowledge to make goods and that being black does not mean they are dumb.
The CEO of the Kantanka Group of Companies, Mr. Kwadwo Safo Jr., said the company’s definition of a transformative mindset began with the belief that you could achieve anything you set out to do.
He said the company was proud to go so far in using science and technology to help build the country and the continent.
The vice chancellor of the University of Health and Allied Sciences, Professor John Gyapon, who chaired the event, said that in the early years of the Church, the relationship between it and science was more cohesive than it is today.
