The Dormaa Traditional Council has found itself at the center of a heated debate after its queen mother, Nana Odeneho Akosua Fiba Dwaben, imposed hefty fines on several chiefs and queen mothers.<\/p>\n
The penalty, 12 white rams each, was handed down for attending a stakeholder engagement organized by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in Berekum.<\/p>\n
At the heart of the issue lies the queenmother\u2019s alleged grievances with the President\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n
Insiders reveal that she feels the government has neglected the Dormaa Traditional Council, prompting her to take drastic action.<\/p>\n
However, critics argue that this move is politically motivated and aimed at undermining the New Patriotic Party\u2019s (NPP) influence in the region.<\/p>\n
The Broader Implications<\/p>\n
The fines have sparked concerns about the potential consequences on the community\u2019s unity and the political landscape.<\/p>\n
Some residents question the timing and motives behind the queen mother\u2019s decision, given the NPP\u2019s significant infrastructural developments in Dormaa.<\/p>\n
Others see this as an opportunity for the traditional council to assert its authority and promote unity among its members.<\/p>\n
A History of Collaboration<\/strong><\/p>\nIn the past, the Dormaa Traditional Council has worked closely with the government to address pressing issues, such as the fight against galamsey.<\/p>\n
The council\u2019s support was instrumental in bringing the practice under control in areas like Amasu, Wamfie, and Kyeremasu.<\/p>\n
