Touting some of her development initiatives, she indicated that she had so far rolled out an apprenticeship programme for about 20 young girls to equip them with self-employable skills in the community among others.
Nana Anokowa I, thanked the family and community for the confidence reposed in her to champion the d
evelopment of the community and said she would do more to help grow the area.
Madam Catherine Abenlemah Afeku, a former Minister for Tourism, Arts and Culture, charged the newly installed development chief to channel more efforts into girl-child education with special reference to Technical, Vocational, and Education Training.
She donated 10 sewing machines as part of efforts to support apprenticeship training for young girls in Edelesuazo.
