Akwatiahene advises students
against "leaver's nights"
Akwatia, July 20, GNA - Osabarima Kofi Boateng III,
Akwatiahene, has advised students against organizing
"leavers nights" on completion of Junior and Senior
Secondary schools as such nights could promote immorality,
which would endanger their health and future.
Giving the advice at the Ohumkan festival celebration at
Akwatia, Nana Akwatiahene announced that with immediate
effect such nights were banned in the area and warned
organizers of such events and owners of spots, which were
used for such purposes to take note.
Nana Akwatiahene advised students to rather study hard and
excel in their studies and examinations since education was
the golden key that opened the doors to success in life.
He said he would personally support any brilliant but needy
student that was disciplined and had the potential of
climbing higher on the academic ladder.
Osabarima Boateng called on parents to support and encourage
their children to study hard for their future would depend
on good performance in their examinations.
Nana Akwatiahene warned against indiscipline, decrying the
behaviour of some of the young men in the town, which he
said bordered on lawlessness.
He said the town's assembly members were shirking their
responsibility in organizing communal labour and that had
made the town filthy and weedy.
He said the traditional authority had with immediate effect
taken over the organization of communal labour and that any
resident, who wilfully refused to participate in it,
including the assembly members, would be made to face the
law.
Nana Akwatiahene warned against illegal developments on
plots, which had not been officially acquired from the
town's building plots allocation committee, saying action
would be taken against those developers.
