Ajumako (C/R), Dec 22, GNA - Nana Kwamena Hammah

Ababio II, President of the Ajumako Assin Traditional Council has

urged king makers and family heads to be innovative and to always

use the appropriate channels to seek redress when

misunderstandings arise between them and their chiefs. He made the call when Nana Afrasie Brempong VII, Odikro of

Ajumako Assin Twiekroo was sworn before him and the entire

members of the Traditional Council at Ajumako on Friday. Nana Hammah Ababio advised the king makers to collaborate

with the chiefs to ensure that they work creditably towards the

development of the area. He entreated Nana Brempong VII to make himself accessible to

the people and always be ready to listen to their grievances,

suggestions and ideas, that together they could build a sound

society. "You must always remember that you are elevated to that

leadership position to serve those who pushed you there, but not

use it as an opportunity to lord over them" Nana Hammah Ababio

cautioned him. Nana Ababio stated that some people in their quest to seek

leadership roles always made themselves available for the position,

but the story became different after they "get to the top". He advised Nana Ababio to use the opportunity to unite the

people, initiate programmes and projects that will be beneficial to

the people. Nana Afrasie Brempong who is known in private life as Eric
