The enstooling ceremony was done at the premises of the Chief of the Krobo Municipal District, Nene Sakite II. To him, Partey should be a source of inspiration to children in the area.
"I invited Thomas back home so our young children can see the end result of hard work, perseverance and discipline. I want them to know humility is important to unlock talent and potential."
The title of 'Mahefalor' was conferred on the midfielder to signify he is the defender of the Kroboland.
