The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has fondly recalled his instrumental role in the life of his grandson, Energy Minister Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh (Napo), from his early days in the medical field to his current endeavors in the political arena.

With the Asantehene’s guidance and financial backing, Napo pursued his medical studies with diligence, later expanding his horizons by pursuing further studies abroad in Holland, the USA, and the United Kingdom.
