While speaking on a radio station in the Volta Region recently, he said that seeing the female presenter, who was interviewing him, has re-affirmed that desire.

“You know my basic position that I’ve taken, and seeing you, of course, it’s heightened it: my determination to marry in the Volta Region, and that I'm like a suitor who keeps on knocking on the door, looking forward to the day the door will be open. We’ll keep on till the day the door is open,” the president, who is married to his "beautiful Rebecca" said.

The president was in the Volta Region as part of a recent tour of some regions in the country.
