He was charged to take up the position given him to ensure the development of the community by partnering with the other sub-chiefs to deliver on his mandate.
The sub-chiefs of Osaberima took turns to advise the new chief on what was expected of him as the occupant of the Gyaase stool.
The newly enstooled Gyaasehene, during his address, thanked the elders for honouring him with such a position and pledged to work closely with the other sub-chiefs to improve education, sanitation and to help create job opportunities for the youth in the area.
