All invited guests including government functionaries and prominent chiefs invited by the chiefs and people of Ahunda Boso in the Adaklu Anyigbe District to their second ’Midezor Festival on Saturday did not turn up. Togbe Asamoah III, chief of the town who did not hide his disappointment at the turn of events when he addressed the people, said politicians should know that it was on the back of the ordinary man that they rode to reach their present positions. "You must give a little respect to the rural dwellers," he said.The people of Ahunda Boso who originated from Anum Boso in the Eastern Region to settle at their present abode instituted the festival to commemorate the founding of the community and also to raise funds for development projects.The week long festival was under the theme ’Peace and Unity - the key to sustainable development’.Togbe Asamoah said the community had progressed from a hamlet to its present state due to the diligence of the people who are predominantly farmers.He said the community was able to undertake a lot of development projects including classroom blocks for the local primary school, potable water and a health centre and appealed to the government to upgrade the centre to a clinic Togbe Asamoah reminded the people that no meaningful development could be attained in an atmosphere of chaos, hatred and division and appealed to all citizens of the area "to come on board to see the vision of the community through".He said even though the Volta Stone Quarry was situated near the area, the road linking the area to Ho was in a very deplorable state making it difficult for farmers to cart their produce to the marketing centres and appealed to the government to upgrade it. Togbe Asamoah was full of praise for Habitat For Humanity, a non-governmental organisation for putting up 62 houses in the community that were mortgaged to the people. "Though the people of Adaklu have been cheated in the location of the capital of the Adaklu Anyigbe District, I am appealing to my compatriots to bury their hatchet and rescind their decision not to join the district in order to access development projects", he said.Source: GNA
