"No matter where you find yourself, you're not to look for material things that are not what life is about...you're to serve humanity.
"You're going to look around and see ostenticity, pettiness and greed so much on display...you need to think and say to yourselves...this is not the way to build a Ghana beyond Aid," the Vice President pointed out.
