Few days ago, the Gomoa Fetteh Festival in Ghana was beautifully held and of a truth we must appreciate the adorable culture and tradition that were on display. In same celebratory mood, this week’s ’Behind The Lens with Queen Liz’ sees Elizabeth Essuman engage in a compelling, educational and historical interview with the distinguished Chief of Gomoa Fetteh and Twafohen Traditional Area, Nana Abor Atta II, in the Central Region of Ghana.
For a royal who was crowned on October 16, 2019, and whose leadership interwoven ancient wisdom with modern flair, he opened up on many happenings of then and now on this episode — from the true history of the Gomoa Fetteh festival’s starting point to where that history is today and so much more; the revelation remains fascinating.
The significance of Gomoa Fetteh’s traditional institutions, and the responsibilities that come with serving as a traditional leader in regard to culture, heritage, and development, all were made bare by the distinguished Chief.
For a leader who has spearheaded numerous community development projects from the construction of polyclinics, durbar grounds, ultra-modern astro turf, among other things, it is in other that his shared experience on the stool and his vision for his community be embraced… that he spoke of as well.
This episode of ’Behind The Lens with Queen Liz’ also highlights the role festivals in Ghana and Africa at large bring people together, promote unity and peace, support development, and strengthen the connection between the people and their cultural roots.
