Mr. Ahmed Ibrahim, the Minister of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, has called for the support and cooperation of the traditional authorities in the Banda District, to enable him to achieve his vision for the Ministry.
The sector minister, who is also the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Banda constituency in the Bono Region said, “failing to fulfil or achieve my vision as a minister, will bring shame to his people”.
Interacting with the chiefs and people at Banda-Ahenkro, the constituency capital during a visit, Mr Ibrahim said, with the support and cooperation of the people he would be inspired and deliver on his mandate, thereby opening the district up for economic development.
He highlighted on the numerous economic prospects in the area, and urged the people to remain development-oriented, standing against negative practices and tendencies that could slow down development in the area and nationally.
Mr. Ibrahim said President John Dramani Mahama’s government required their entire support as well and asked them to shun lawlessness, but to eagerly contribute their quota towards national development through hard work.
Nana Yaw Sienyunu, the Gyassehene (sub-chief) of the Banda Traditional Area, told the Minister that many of the youth had picked inspiration from him becoming a beacon of light and a source of wisdom for the people.
