Your respect for the Chieftaincy Institution is outstanding—Paramount Chief of Nangodi to President Akufo Addo

The Paramount Chief of Nangodi Naba Yelzoya Asaga II has shown appreciation of praises to the President of the Republic His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo for his loyalty and respect to the chieftaincy institution in the country. The chief who was excited during the reading of his welcome address to the President narrated how President Akufo Addo has conducted himself anytime he had the opportunity to meet with him in Accra. “We are indeed grateful and deeply humbled to have you in our midst. Your presence is an excellent demonstration of your outstanding respect for the chieftaincy institution. I remember the first time I met you in Accra for a programme about illegal mining when you were entering, your agents wanted to receive you as President of who you are. But I remembered when you came in, you were eager to let chiefs sit, even though we continue to give you the respects that was due you, that is your attitude and anytime I have met, that always what I saw you, that has shown that you indeed respect and regards chieftaincy and that is what I mean by your outstanding regards for the chieftaincy institution.” He said According to Naba Yelzoya Asaga II, Nabdam has not been left out in the share of the national cake. He was satisfied to inform the president that all his good policies, such as NABO, One District One Warehouse (1D1W), Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ), etc are poverty alleviated policies which in one way or the other have to benefit the ordinary citizens of Nabdam. “His Excellency, I am pleased to inform you that Nabdam has got its own share of the national cake of which we are grateful. If you are observant, you can see around you we have placards indicating what we have received from you, we are grateful. We have also the past three years witnessed the implementation of several developmental projects, notable among which are the Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ), Nation Builder Corps (NABCO) Youth in Aforestation, One Village One Dam (1V1D), One constituency One ambulance (1C1A), One District One warehouse (1D1W) which you just finished commissioning a while ago.” He stated According to the Nabdam Chief, Nabdam has been known as a largely farming community, interventions of this nature will go a long way to enhance their livelihood. He extended appreciation to the president for the Minibus he provided to the only Senior High Secondary School and also the pick up to the District Education Directorate. However, like Oliver Twist, Naba Yelzoya appeals to the president for an ultra-modern office complex for the District Education Directorate and a pick up for the Kongo Senior High to enhance education in the district. “Also worth noting, is our initiating of a community base Senior High School in Nalerigu and Sakoti which are been challenged with the implementation of the Senior High School policy, we will therefore be grateful if the Ministry of Education will fully adopt these schools to prevent their collapse.” He pleaded The Nabdam Chief made these pronouncement during the President  two day tour in the Upper East Region.
