Guinness World Re­cord (GWR) Sing-a-thon sensation, Mrs Afua Asantewaa Aduonum has signed a three-year renewable deal with leading electronic security company Response One(1) Limited as Brand Ambas­sador.

The deal follows a bur­glary incident at her home in December 2023, a cou­ple of days before engag­ing in the GWR attempt.

By the deal, Afua Asantewaa would assist the company in its effort to educate the public on security and other activi­ties that would ensure the protection of lives and properties.

Speaking at the cere­mony to seal the deal, the Chief Operating Officer for Response 1, Mr David William Botes said, the company was thrilled to welcome Afua Asantewaa, a symbol of national pride and determination into their fraternity.

“Our top-tier security installation at her home is a testament to our com­mitment to tranquility and safety, ensuring that Afua and all clients can enjoy peace of mind like never before,” he stated.

The Head of Business Development at Response 1, Kwasi Ofori-Atta added that, “it is great to have Afua on board to support our objectives of protect­ing lives and properties.”

He was optimistic that the relationship would last for a long time while calling on the public to be conscious of security.

Afua Asantewaa said, she was happy to sign onto Response 1 and urged Ghanaians to make the provision of security at their homes a priority.

She said, “at the com­fort of my home, I am able to see whoever is coming in from afar and also see whatever happens even while away from home.”

She also urged the gov­ernment provide security at the Senior High Schools (SHSs) to protect students.

As tourism ambassador, she added that it was important for Ghanaians and visitors who would be trooping into the country in March for the Heritage Month, to be safe.
