A new Paramount chief has been installed for the Amanten Traditional Area in the Bono East region.

Osabarima Appau Bonsie Bonsu II, has since November 13, 2022 sworn the oath of allegiance  to the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi.

The new paramount chief, a soldier of the Fourth Battalion Infantry of the Ghana Army, answers to Warrant Officer 1 Fredrick Osei Bonsu, in his private life.

Osabarima Appau Bonsie Bonsu has pledged to work with the elders and help build a stronger chieftaincy institution in the region.

He called for unity among the people, while appealing to the youth to abstain from social vices of all forms.

Osabarima Appau Bonsie Bonsu has since December 3, 2022 been outdoored at a colourful ceremony at Amanten.

Nana Serwaa Bonsu Brakatu II, Queen mother of Amanten Traditional area urged colleague queen mothers to collaborate with stool elders and work towards ensuring the enstooolment of chiefs for vacant stools.

According to her, communities without chiefs lack development, which is at the expense of the people. She commended the media group for the encouragement and urged them to work for the development of the region as a whole.

Meanwhile, Techiman-based “Friends of The Media” has commended Nana Sewaa Bonsu Brakatu II and the Amanten Traditional Council for ensuring a peaceful process in the installation and the swearing in ceremonies of the new paramount chief for the traditional area. The chairman of the group, Mr Robert K. Kodom, noted that the numerous chieftaincy disputes in the Bono East region retard development and progress, and appealed to the queen mother and elders to ensure peace and tranquillity.

Mr Kodom, urged queen mothers whose male stools are vacant to emulate the example of the Queen mother of Amanten to find peaceful ways to enstool chiefs devoid of unnecessary disputes which impair development.
