Amenaki for the honor of visiting them so soon after his nomination.
He noted that such swift engagement demonstrated the nominee’s respect for traditional leadership and his dedication to inclusive governance. The chiefs used the opportunity to advise Rev. Amenaki on the expectations of the traditional council and the people of Ketu North. They urged him to prioritize development projects that would improve the lives of residents, strengthen local governance, and foster unity among all stakeholders.
Additionally, the council pledged to engage their subjects to ensure a smooth confirmation process for the nominee, emphasising that any further delay in the appointment could hinder the municipality’s development. At the end of the visit, Rev. Amenaki and his entourage expressed their appreciation for the warm reception, exchanged pleasantries with the chiefs, and reaffirmed their commitment to collaboration for the advancement of Ketu North.
