The President of Awutu Traditional Council, Nai Abokuade Agyeman Wettey Otabil III, has appealed to the government, political parties and the security agencies to do their best to maintain the peaceful atmosphere existing in the country.
He said reports of misunderstandings and violence in some parts of the country, was a threat to the security of the country, and everything possible must be done to reverse the situation.
"Ghana is a peaceful country and we should not allow polities to bring conflicts and division among us to disrupt our young democracy processes," he said.
Nai Otabil made the call when he addressed a durbar of chiefs to climax their annual Awubia Festival at Awutu Beraku on Monday.
The theme for the celebration was; "New steps towards progress and development".
Nai Otabil who is also the Omanhene of the Awutu Traditional Area, appealed to politicians to stop insulting and attacking themselves, either on the radio, TV or at functions.
He commended the government for creating a separate district for Awutu-Senya and appealed that the road from Awutu Beraku through Bontrase to Obreachire be rehabilitated to make movement easy for people and goods.
Nai Otabil called on his people to send their children, especially the girl child to school for them to become useful future citizens.
Mr Samuel Obodai, Deputy Central Regional Minister, advised the chiefs to collaborate with district assembles in the region to formulate policies and bye laws to improve sanitation and rapid development of their areas.
He urged them to take advantage of programmes and interventions that had been initiated by the government to improve their living standard.
Mr Dankwa Smith, Central Region Chairman of NPP on behalf the Flag bearer of the party, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo presented a cash of 200 Ghana Cedis and three bottles of Schnapps towards the celebration of the festival.
Mr Solomon Abbam Quaye, District Chief Executive for the area said the chiefs in the area have released a 20-hectare square land for the construction of a permanent office for the district assembly offices.
He appealed to people who are encroaching on the said land to stop the practice to avoid facing 'drastic action'.
