Techiman (Brong Ahafo), 31st May 99 -

Members of the Techiman Ahenefie Youngsters Club are planting trees along the principal streets of the town as part of activities marking the 20th anniversary of the June Four Uprising.

The chairman of the Club, Mr Kwaku Adjei said the members decided to undertake the project because apart from commemorating such a historic occasion, the trees would also help beautify the town and act as a wind breaks.

He said the club has put in place the necessary steps to ensure that every seedling planted is nurtured to maturity.

The District Chief Executive, Mr Francis Yaw commended the club for their communal spirit and urged other voluntary bodies to assist the assembly, to solve the sanitation problem of the town, by organising cleanup campaigns regularly.

In appreciation of their dedication, the DCE presented a number of food items to the members, to encourage them to undertake more of such projects.
