Okofrobuor Obeng Nuako II, the Dunkwahene, has expressed grave concern over the continued usage of drugs including cannabis, cocaine, tramadol and alcohol by the youth.
He noted during the observation of Akwasidae, last Sunday, that drug abuse which normally acts as a catalyst for economic woes and creates a profound negative impact on the community has become rampant in the Dunkwa enclave.
Okoforbour Nuako admonished the youth, as future leaders, against experimenting with drugs because it would ruin their lives.
The Chief further advised BECE candidates, who are due to write their basic examination in May, 2026 to learn hard and not rely on “exam malpractices”.
The Dunkwahene also called on the Minister of Roads and Highways to prioritise the Dunkwa-Kumasi road, as well as Dunkwa-Ayanfuri road, noting that they are vital to the livelihood of residents of Dunkwa enclave.
That stretch, the chief noted, serves as a major road that connects the Takoradi Habour to the northern sector of the country.
