The Presidential Candidate for the Movement for Change, Mr John Alan Kwadwo Kyerematen has emphasised the need for governments to integrate the chieftaincy institution in the local government system.
He said that involving chiefs and queen mothers in local governance is not out of place, since politics and chieftaincy are the same and complement each other.
The MFC Presidential hopeful said given the chance in the December elections, he would involve Nananom and their Queen mothers in the local government system, to help accelerate development in their jurisdictions.
Mr. Alan Kyerematen was the Special Guest of Honour at the launch of the 25th anniversary of the enstoolment of Nana Adusei Atwenewah I, the Omanhene of Tepa Traditional Area, at Tepa, on Friday.
The Movement for Change founder frowned on the politicisation of issues of national interest, saying they contribute to creating divisions on the national front.
He said his government of national unity will help Ghana to rise up again and called on Ghanaians to give him the mandate to lead Ghana out of the doldrums and economic hardships.
Mr. Kyerematen also touted the prophetic significance of his 13th position on the ballot and called on the Ghanaian electorate to vote for him to move Ghana forward.
He endorsed Eric Nana Agyeman Prempeh, the NPP Parliamentary candidate, to champion the aspirations of the constituents in the area.
Nana Adusei Atwenewah Ampem I was grateful to the Presidential candidate for gracing the occasion.
