In an interview with dmtv_1, the founder of the microcredit company Bills Microcredit, also announced ongoing plans to establish more food banks across Ghana.
He emphasised that free meals would be available every single day of the year.
He invited anyone who may be struggling to feed themselves or their children to visit any of his food banks for well-balanced meals at no cost.
“Going forward, I will establish food banks across the country, including Tamale. There will be food every single day. Anyone who cannot feed himself or herself can walk in and get decent food to eat. Beyond that, there will be clean water to drink and juice after eating.”
The businessman firmly stressed that he is doing this purely out of compassion.
“I don’t want anything in return. I am not a politician; I have no political ambitions. All I need is your prayers so God continues to bless the work of my hands so that when I receive, I can also give you some. My intentions are genuine, and there are no strings attached.”

Reactions to RNAQ sidelining political calls
Commenting on the video, one concerned citizen posed a question about the reason behind the Food Bank operators taking Ghana Cards before serving.

"For educational purposes: What do they do with the Ghana Card details they take from people who go to eat there?"
A response from another user explained that it is to prevent abuse of the system, where some individuals may try to take extra portions.
Moisture Content replied:
"So the system is not abused by repetitions."

"It is for security purposes, in case anything happens, they have to provide records for justification."
