The second edition also gave budding politician John Dumelo the opportunity to share his story. On Tuesday May 19, from 9:00am to 12:00pm, Rev. Erskine will interview Joyce Aryee, she is a former Minister, she has won several awards and her inspiring story will teach listeners especially the young ladies that it is possible to dream.
