Bredi, (B/A), Jan. 31, – Mr. Nick
Danso Adjei, a business tycoon has commended the Nkoranza South Municipal
Police Command for its unyielding effort that led to reduced robbery attacks on
the Nkoranza-Ejura highway in the Brong-Ahafo Region.
He observed that Police presence
on the highway had brought great relief to drivers, traders and passengers,
saying such security presence on the stretch must be continued.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency
(GNA) in an interview at Bredi in the Municipality, on the sidelines of the
celebration of the Krufie festival, Mr. Adjei, popularly known as “Abeam”
pledged his commitment to support the Police Service in crime fighting.
The annual Krufie festival, which
is celebrated by the Chiefs and People of Bredi, aimed at portraying and
preserving the ancestral and cultural heritage of the people attracted hundreds
of fetish priests and priestesses, drawn from the length and breadth of the
country.
Other traditional priests from
Togo, Benin, United States and France joined the people to commemorate the
three-day festival.
Amidst drumming and firing of
musketries, the fetish priests and priestesses who were dressed in their
diverse traditional regalia, displayed their ancient days of priesthood and
spiritual prowess at the Bredi town square.
Mr Adjei, who is also a
philanthropist, noted that modern policing and crime combat was a shared and
collective responsibility hence the need for society to support the Police.
He entreated the Police
Administration to endeavour to maintain a Police Post and Police quarters he
had built to accommodate personnel in the area.
Mr Adjei later unveiled a residential
apartment he constructed at the cost of US$800,000.00 at Bredi in honour of his
late father Nana Kwadwo Adjei, who settled and developed the Bredi community.
