The people of Yilo Krobo on Saturday showcased what defines them as a unique people when they descended on the Akutunya Lorry Park to observe their annual Kloyosikplemi festival.
Hundreds of people wearing beads with matching African apparels filled the vast lorry square at Somanya with some scouring for space at near-by buildings and on trees.
By mid-day the Chiefs of the various divisions of the Yilo state started arriving in well-ornamented palanquins to the applause of the crowd.
The place went into frenzy when the overlord of the area, Kpetekple Narh Dawutey Ologo, rode to park in a sleek Mercedes Benz sedan.
Nene Ologo, according to an explanation obtained by the GNA now prefers the use of car because of his age.
Nene Ologo who is President of the Eastern Regional House of Chiefs arrived to a standing ovation in the company of the Omanhene of the New Juaben Traditional area, Daasebre (Dr) Oti Boateng.
Daasebre's intricate walk ahead of Kpetekple was another sight to behold as the Ex-Government Statistician accompanied by several minders generated their own brand of excitement with heavy throbbing of drums.
The Deputy Eastern Regional Minister, Mr Ofosu Asamoah who represented President J.A. Kufour at the function was chauffeured in the company of half a dozen District Chief Executives.
The Paramount Chief of the Anum Traditional Area, Nana Appiah Kumi and the acting President of the Manya Krobo Traditional area, Nene Sasraku also attended the ceremony.
