« KEEA ORGANIZES CULTURAL FESTIVAL

It was a moment of joy when the district cultural coordinator for the KEEA

education office announced officially that there will be cultural Festival

in the district to mark the activities marking Ghana at 50 celebration. Many

disciplines including drumming and dancing, poetry recital, drum language,

exhibition and many more. However the celebration was done by circuit level.

Interestingly, AIMs concept of using pure water rubber to sow bag was done by

the school pupils for their artifacts. In her submission, the district

cultural coordinator Miss Akosua Adedia was very impressive for such a wonderful

ideas and concept from the pupils and caution the teachers to be up and doing so

as to promote our rich African culture.

Culture they say is the bedrock our development. She further explained that KEEA

to be precise is said to be among the  tourist centers in the country since the

district is endowed with so many historic attractions like the castles in the Elmina

and cave in Komenda.

The coordinator appealed to the opinion leaders, the government, the NGOs,

chiefs and the district to rehablitate Komenda cave so as draw more tourist

into the Komenda township and this,will help promote economic activities and reducing poverty.

In an exclusive interview with Hon. Solomon Appiah the assenblyman for Komenda amotoe

electoral area said he would try his possible best led the crusade of promoting Komenda cave.

”I will use all my resources and my capacity to make sure that rehablitation of the Komenda

cave becomes a reality”. He stressed. Hon.Appiah further caution those who win sand around the

Komenda College to desist from such practice before the law takes it course.

Very soon my office and the local council will enback on a positive action

dubbed ”operation stop sand winning in Komenda”. The assemblyman lamented.

He concluded by caution all government agencies and the coporate bodies

including NGOs to help kicking out the activities of sand winning in Komenda and

this he said will help and protect the government from spending huge sums of

money in building sea defence of which the money could be used for other developmental

projects in the town.
