Albeit living in Germany as a seasoned mechanic, König Bansah rules the people of Hohoe Gbi Traditional Ghana and has been actively pursuing aid programmes in his kingdom for many years, garnering support from German businesses and individuals to build bridges, provide medical assistance and build schools for his people.
