Daasebre Akuamoah Boateng III
The Paramount Chief of Kwahu Traditional Area, Daasebre Akuamoah Boateng III, has called on the public, especially investors visiting the area during the Easter festivities to utilise and harness the numerous investment opportunities in the area.
According to him, apart from the variety of activities including paragliding, hiking, carnivals, street jams among others that are held for revellers, investors could harness the vast ecotourism opportunities in the area.
“I don’t believe ‘Kwahu ooo, Kwahu’ should end when Easter festivities end. Many people across the globe including Ghanaians fly to Dubai throughout the year to experience paragliding”
“All the beautiful things in Kwahu aside from the paragliding cannot be experienced only once a year. Entrepreneurs should utilise the economic opportunities that abound in Kwahu,” he added.
The paramount chief further stated that the location and resources available makes the town an ideal place for tourists, however, an area such as paragliding could be held throughout the year.
Daasebre Akuamoah Boateng III, also expressed the Paramountcy’s readiness to provide the necessary support for the government to ensure that the 24-hour economy also thrives well in the tourism sector particular at Kwahu with immense tourism potential.
He indicated that to achieve the objective of making Kwahu a number one tourism destination for people across the globe, his office has engaged the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) to properly outline the tourism investment opportunities in the area to appeal to investors.
“I have engaged the GTA to support my agenda to showcase the beauty, health benefits, and historic sites of our environment among others to the world,” he added.
