The Minister for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Abla Dzifa Gomashie, has launched the Ananse Heritage Project, an innovative cultural initiative aimed at reviving Ghana’s legendary folklore hero, Kweku Ananse, through animation and digital storytelling.
The project, spearheaded by Parables Animation Studio, seeks to reconnect Ghanaian youth with traditional values while promoting creativity and cultural pride.
Gomashie commended the initiative, describing it as a bridge between tradition and technology, and reaffirmed the government’s support for the creative sector.
Distinguished guests, including Prof. Kobby Mensah, Dr. Wale Okediran, Mr. Phil Philips, and Simone Giger, lauded the project and pledged their support toward its success.
The Police have arrested two suspects, including the alleged gang leader, in connection with the robbery attack on the Berekum Chelsea football team that resulted in the death of one of the players.
According to a Police update, the arrests were made after intelligence-led operations by security personnel.
One of the suspects sustained gunshot wounds during an exchange of fire with the police.
He has since been taken to a hospital where he is receiving medical treatment, while the other suspect remains in police custody assisting with investigations.
The Police indicated that efforts are ongoing to apprehend other members of the gang linked to the attack.
They assured the public that more details will be provided as investigations progress.
