The Mawerehemaa, who is also a product of African University College of Communication (AUCC), is also the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Konekt Ghana Foundation (KGF), a youth-driven charity organisation.

Nana Tiaah Darkoh I further called for the collective efforts to help her contribute to the development of the community.

Three other new chiefs in the ranks of Guantuahene, Guantuahemaa and Dabehene titles were enstooled at the same event.

The Chief of Apirede, Nana Saforo Okoampah III, described the event as a memorable one in the history of the community Nana Saforo Okoampah urged the new chiefs to show evidence of loyalty to the people by relating well with them.

The Akyempimhene of Wassail Daman, Nana Ampassi Bene- Mireku, said chieftaincy must be seen as a call to serve in order to make impact in the living standards of the people.
