In a citation, the Country Director of the Country Awards Council Ghana, Mr. Kobla Asamani described H.E. Dr Ben Ammi as “A born leader, unique, visionary and humane person, a keeper of faith and true African values, an endurer and pace setter, a natural made and a holistic scholar, a keeper and fulfiller of the promise, an eternal asset, a beacon of hope and the creator of a new form of humanity, a leaders leader and a heroes hero”. Mr Kobla Asamani added that H. E. Dr Ben Ammi has helped bridged the gap between spirituality and development like no other leader before in global history, in the process creating new and progressive options for successfully building communities and projects based on enduring righteous, African cultural principles. “H.E Dr Ben Ammi’s involvement in Ghana’s development for many years has led to establishment of the African Hebrew Development Agency (AHDA), an NGO which collaborated with the Ghana’s Ministry of Health to design and implement the current Regenerative Health and Nutrition Programme, implement Ghana’s national health policy and also the fist nation state to make disease prevention a policy all through efforts and under the able leadership of the late Major Courage Quashigah (Rtd), a former Minister of Health in the NPP government”. Mr. Asamani further remarked that Dr. Ben Ammi also commissioned technicians from the Hebrew community to drill eight water wells in the Volta Region; after Ghana’s former President H. E. Jerry John Rawlings lamented that the water in the lavatories of Accra was more suitable than water Ghanaians drink in the rural areas. The Anointed Spiritual Leader of the African Hebrew Israelites in Dimona, further commissioned a delegation of medical and dental professionals to provide free health services to more than 100 Ghanaians in the rural areas, Mr. Asamani stated. All these projects promote what Mr. Asamani termed as the “Dimona Model” but more accurately reflect in most cases a modern application of many ancient African cultural traditions that are in harmony with the laws of nature. With these achievements, BBC’s “Focus on Africa”magazine in the year 2000 named him the “One of the Most Influential Africans of the last Millennium”. While, the Israeli media has named Dimona as “An Island of Sanity”, the US Congressional Human Rights Caucus calls Dimona “Miracle in the Desert” and the Israeli Foreign Ministry also calls Dimona “A Phenomena in a land of Phenomena”. Earlier, the CACG held a town hall meeting with H.E Dr Ben Ammi in which people from all walks of life were given the opportunity to interact the Spiritual Leader. Students from Keta and Apam Senior High Schools had a critical encounter with H. E. Ben Ammi to clarify issues on a wide range of topics, particular on nature, culture, morality and development. In response to some of the questions, Dr. Ammi stated that Africa’s Problems are spiritual problems. He called on African Leaders to learn from their history and the African Cultural Value System which he described as a powerful tool which was the solution to the mastering of a perception engineering and deception of some countries in the west... modernghana/news/267682/1/country-awards-council-ghana-has-honoured-h-e-dr-b.html
