I will love to be tourism minister if appointed–Dr. Adu Gyamfi

waterfallPolitical Scientist Dr. Samuel Adu Gyamfi of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has expressed his passion to hold a portfolio in the ministry of Tourism if appointed.

According to him, people tend to look down upon anyone appointed to take charge of the tourism ministry.

Speaking on Royal fm’s morning show, Dr Samuel Adu Gyamfi noted that tourism is a prime factor for national development.

He noted that tourism helps to beautify and project the certain important aspect of the country.

Dr.Gyamfi is therefore advocating the setting up of structures with ancient landmarks and also filled with traditional architectural features.

He however called on the ministry of chieftaincy to liaise with the necessary departments and organizations to promote the cultural heritage of the country.

‘‘Those appointed at the ministry of chieftaincy should not think they are ceremonial heads .They should be proactive and promote development through the setting up of tourist attraction centers in their areas of jurisdiction’’, he noted.
