Sefwi-Wiawso (WN/R), May 09, GNA – Mr Wilbert Petty Brentum, the Western North Regional Minister, has paid a courtesy call on members of the Sefwi-Wiawso Traditional Council to strengthen the collaboration between the government and the traditional authorities for accelerated growth.

Addressing the chiefs, he stressed that the government could not embark on any development project without the support of the traditional authorities, hence his visit.

The Minister stated that the National Democratic Congress government led by President John Dramani Mahama was always ready to collaborate with the chiefs to find ways to solve the developmental challenges facing the region for the benefit of all the people.

He assured them that his doors were opened for ideas and advice from everyone, “so that we can chart a common path to realise the development we all desire for our region.”

Nana Yaw Berko, the linguist of the Sefwi-Wiawso Traditional Council, on behalf of the chiefs and people of the Sefwi-Wiawso Traditional Area, thanked the Regional Minister and his team for the visit, and assured him of their support, while urging him to focus on developmental course and ignore destructors.
