Speaking at the launch of the West Africa Music and Arts Festival, he said "We were at a recent program and some designers presented a citation to the Second Lady. They said people are now patronizing them because of how they sew what the Second Lady wears, and most of them prefer that. They want us to sew exactly what the Second Lady wears."

He commended the Second Lady's fashion sense, saying it was laudable and a significant contributor to the growth of the fashion industry in Ghana.

The West Africa Music and Arts Festival, which is currently underway, aims to celebrate West African music, arts and culture.
