NEW GYAASEHENE FOR KWABENG (SPREAD)

THE Chiefs of the Gyaase Division of the Akyem Abuakwa Traditional Area in collaboration with the elders of Kwabeng, capital of the Atiwa District of the Eastern Region, yesterday installed Nana Kofi Adjei Twini I as the acting Gyaasehene of Kwabeng.
The 55-year-old regent, who is currently the Akyempemhene of Kwabeng, is the Managing Director of Mac-Dic Enterprises Limited, operators of Mac-Dic Royal Plaza Hotel in Koforidua.
Nana Twini’s installation followed the death of the Gyaasehene of the Akyem Abuakwa Traditional Area, Osabarima Darkwa Woe II, recently.
He would act in that capacity until the chiefs and people of the area nominate and install a substantive Gyaasehene in the future.
At a ceremony to install the new Gyaasehene, the chief of Adasawase, Osabarima Kwame Tia I, advised Nana Twini to show humility and respect in his dealings with the people to enable him to win their goodwill.
For his part, the acting Gyaasehene appealed to the people to forgo past bickering among them and forge ahead in unity to enable them to contribute meaningfully to the area’s development.
“Since our area is peaceful, we must collectively resolve to unite and maintain such peace by preparing to let go of past misunderstandings and wrongs against us,” he appealed to the people.
Nana Twini also called for the co-operation and support of the chiefs and people of the area, saying, “I cannot accomplish the task given me alone and, therefore, will need your advice and encouragement to surmount the challenges.”
