Abura Ahomfie Chief Nana Appreh Korankye IX Pledges Jobs, Development and Youth Empowerment

The newly enstooled chief of Abura Ahomfie, Nana Appreh Korankye IX, has pledged to spearhead development and create sustainable employment opportunities for the youth in the community.

Speaking to residents after his enstoolment, Nana Appreh Korankye IX highlighted his vision to transform Abura Ahomfie through strong collaboration with key stakeholders. He noted that the community has fallen behind in terms of infrastructure and socio-economic development, stressing the urgent need for intervention.

The chief underscored the importance of youth empowerment, warning that idleness can lead to social vices. He assured the people that job creation would be a central focus of his leadership to ensure a brighter and more secure future for young people in the area.

They appealed to the Member of Parliament and the District Chief Executive for Abura Asebu Kwamankse to come to their aid and support ongoing development efforts.

The enstoolment of Nana Appreh Korankye IX is widely seen as a renewed opportunity for progress, with residents hopeful that his leadership will bring lasting transformation to Abura Ahomfie.
