She stated that an empowered child who understands peace, environmental care, personal integrity, honesty, unity, and democratic participation is a powerful force for sustainable development.
Mrs Amankwa made the statements during the observation of the 2025 Citizenship Week with the students of Leklebi-Dafor D/A Junior High School (JHS) at Leklebi-Dafor in the Afadzato South District of the Volta Region.
