Ada Paramount Chief calls for continuous peace and unity

Nene Abram Kabu Akuaku III, Paramount Chief of the Ada Traditional Area, has called on indigenes to prioritise unity and peace for the progress and development of the Ada State.

Nene Akuaku made the call at a press conference held at his palace in Big Ada, through the secretary of the paramountcy, Nomo Jonathan Dorkutso.

He urged all indigenes to continue promoting peaceful coexistence, protect each other’s interests, and foster development to alleviate poverty in Ada communities.

The paramount chief, prior to the press conference, had expressed concerns over the rising abuse of social media among the youth, especially it being used to attack traditional leaders.

He cautioned the youth to refrain from such acts, warning that the paramountcy would take constitutional action against offenders.

“Without your collective efforts, there would be no Ada. Forgive each other always and embrace change to ensure our continued progress.”

He expressed gratitude to all who participated in this year’s Ada Asafotufiami festival, particularly the indigenes, for celebrating joyfully and peacefully with minimal incidents.

Meanwhile, the Paramount Chief cautioned against any group making the claim that it owned 85 percent of Ada lands to desist from such acts.

According to him, all clans, including Kudjragbe, Tekperbiawer, Lomobiawer, Dangmebiawe, Addibiawer, and Ohuewem, collectively own lands in the Ada state; hence, such a statement could be detrimental to the peaceful coexistence in the area.
