2020; Action Year For Nananom- Bantamahene

Nananom will not will sit aloof in the coming year and look down on development especially in Kumasi, Bantamahene Baffour Owusu Amankwatia (VI) has said.

According to the Warlord, Nananom will fight for development especially in Kumasi. He said, they will not allow politics to destruct development in the second largest city of Ghana, Kumasi.

The Asante Monarch, Otumfour Osei Tutu (ii) has admonished Nananom inclusion in the local assemblies to monitor progress.

According to Otumfour, Chiefs play major in funding local assemblies hence the need to involve them in the ups and downs of their decision.

Commenting on the development at his Bantama Palace, Baffour Owusu Amankwatia (VI) affirmed the words of his Boss and urged colleagues to join hands and fight for the cause.

“Traditional Councils cannot offer 55% of our stool lands to the local development and be excluded from its decision making”, he added.

He warned that, illegal structures and waterlogged buildings will come to halt in the year 2020.

Bantamahene made this known in an interview with FILASCO DEGENERAL at his Palace-Bantama when Obaapanin of Bekwaame, Nana Adwoa Serwaa paid a courtesy call on him on December 23, 2019.

The move by the Obaapanin was aimed to thank Bantamahene, Baffour Owusu Amankwatia (VI) for his good service to the Queen Mother and the people of Bekwaame for his peace and rightful judgment concerning their long standing chieftaincy disputes.

Baffour after appreciating the move by the Obaapanin thanked the people and disclosed that, “2020 is an action year for NANANOM”.
