A former Brong Ahafo Regional Director of Education, Dr George Adjei-Henneh, has been installed Atipimhene of the Japekrom Traditional Area under the stool name Barima Adjei-Henne Aframfo.

At a ceremony characterised with pomp, he swore the oath of allegiance to the Omanhene of the traditional area, Okatakyie Aturu Nkonkonkyia II.

The new chief’s long service to his community is not limited to the field of education.

He pledged to continue to use his vast experience in education and visual arts to assist in the development of the youth in the area.

For his part, Okatakyie Aturu Nkonkonkyia called on chiefs to work hard to make the chieftaincy institution become development-centred and the fulcrum of unity.
