Peaceful coexistence would ensure development – Nii Aryeequaye VI
Nii Aryeequaye VI, the Chief of Adadentan, a Divisional Traditional Area under Ngleshie Alata(Jamestown)Paramount Stool in Accra has called for peaceful coexistence and a solid unified front to help bring accelerated development to the area.
He said it was obvious that since the indigenes came together to form an Association to spearhead development projects in the area, many economic and social infrastructure had sprung up to augment other projects.
Nii Aryeequaye said these at the 6th Anniversary of Adadentan Weku Kpee, a family reunion platform which sought to bring indigenes of the area together to foster unity and create a platform to solve their challenges.
The event was marked with a picnic,a procession through the principal streets of the town and presentation of awards to recognise the contributions of those who supported some of the projects.
Nii Aryeequaye said Adadentan remained one of the key Divisional areas whose ancestors were pillars in the establishment of Ngleshie Alata, thus, bequeathing to them the position to ride his palaquin behind the Paramount Chief during Odwira procession.
He said the area had come a long way to ensure cohesion and peaceful coexistence during this challenging made to get a substantive Paramount chief to ascend to the throne since the demise of Oblempong Kojo Ababio .
Nii Aryeequaye assured the people that efforts were being applied to ensure that all obstacles were duly resolved for a smooth transition adding that t”he onus is on all to positively support the Traditional Council.”
He urged members of the Association not to rest on their oars since there was the need to develop the Adadentan area to its former glorious and enviable position among other Divisions.
