Jinsung Rashid Writes✍️✍️✍️.
As a Prince from the Waala Kingdom,i don’t want to allow my palace and my grand father the overlord to be misled for integrity purpose.
The overlord is more smarter and could have been an official leader,think of a minister,speaker or even president because he met all the criteria and requirements yet he chose Traditional leadership because it was a spiritual and physical call by his people to lead.
If we allow him to be misled some of us including many others will always bow whilst working in the principal street of town because the Wa Naa’s palace existed with truth and honesty for centuries and the personal life of the overlord even before his called to serve his people was patience,honesty and love for not only his people but every living soul, i can testify undoubtedly because i stayed 10 foot away from his living room for more than five years in a compound at Fongu before they finished renovating the Wa Naa’s palace for him to move in,i could organize the streets for him to do his night health walk you can ask him personally because it would not reach more than two weeks i don’t go to palace.
Now to start with.
The banter on the 24 hour market location is over and truth is as “clear as a lightning thunder in a darkest cloud”and that is why i had to also sacrifice unofficial from my network the
Ghana Broadcasting Corporation ie Radio Upper West to hook it live for everyone to listen to in order to reduce the tension ,misinformation and misinterpretation before his excellency departure to Accra.
Now the bombshell and nothing but the bitter truth
1.We were told by the MCE in an interview that information from above says we should look for either a place of proximity otherwise we may loose the project.
Now the president yesterday told us that nothing is coming from above.
His excellency also said the project is for Wa Naa and his people it means we have to take our time and look for a place of proximity and not a mad rush to pull down a school structure because the project is stamped to be ours with same architectural design nationwide and nobody takes it away from us.
2.The local government minister whose office gave birth to the Wa Metropolitan Assembly also made us know that his office and the office of the president will not agree for a 70 year school structure to be demolished .Yet we said information from above says?
3.JM said we should not take anybody’s land for a 24 hour market that will generate issues and controversies.
4.Mahama had spoken maturely to vindicate himself,the local government minister also spoke to vindicate himself not to have issues with the overlord and his people so MCE it is your turn because sometimes bad friends can influence you into issues a word to the wise!
5.Remember the president said we cannot take the market to Bamahu but now with the influx of the students the market can even do well.
6.Remember JM said it should be in the heart of Town and not the Central Business District as you earlier granted an interview to me!
7.Projects like this demands a workshop that will bring together stakeholders from academia,commerce,traditional authorities,the clergy religious leaders,National security and security services and the media.So that they will brainstorm so that you subject the project sustainability or feasibility to media to ask critical questions and that’s the power and beauty of democracy to the people in problem solving.
8.If you demolish a 70 year old school block when options are available, you are setting a bad precedent or championing demolition school infrastructure or structures for commercial purposes and you dare not question future government who may come to do worst.
9.Do not let anyone especially some friends tell you forget them and do it! Mark Banda did more than this yet he was praised.Hmmm My good brother you know something?
Mark Banda had his fullest support from his government and ministry and yours is different because your sector minister never supported it even on camera.
10.Suggestions and recommendations.
(A)The Metro Mass workshop yard is as vast as anything and in the heart of town.
(B)Old regional library with then children park is available
(C)Flat Top with then community center combined that is not been using is available.
(D)Another Vast land for Meteorological department is there waisting in the heart of town.
(E)Mandela junction to old health insurance Municipal office is available
(F)The reason why people patronize less at new market is because we allocated it for only cargo Trucks and cereals and if there is a special market with all the auxiliary facilities it would be champion.
(G)Parks and Gardens is there and opposite it is another vast land adjacent Amdaway filling station.
So with all these must you demolish a structure to put another structure for a school and start building a market again?
Have wonderful Sunday.
