Presbyterians go traditional, Aseda Kese 2016

13:32:00 1



Sunday November 6th, 2016 a great day it was, the first Sunday of the month of November. As usual when it gets to occasions like this, the atmosphere in so many churches across Ghana charges up because it’s a new beginning and a showing of gratitude to God for his blessings and mercies. Right from the beginning of the year till now the Lord has been great and he deserves our praises.

Around this time of the month most churches in Ghana do have their Annual Harvest and in like manner, the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Trinity Congregation, Takoradi headed by the District Minister, Rev. Alexander Offei Boateng saw the need to honor the Lord with a huge thanksgiving service dubbed: ‘Aseda Kese’ 
  For how far the Lord has brought us from January up till now there was the need to show our appreciation by honoring Him with all our substance, thus the purpose for the tittle ‘Aseda Kese’. As part of this celebration, members of the church were all dressed in the ethnic attire which in a way depicted our rich Ghanaian culture and heritage, and the level of tolerance the Presbyterian Church has for all the various regions we have in Ghana.



 The speaker for the event, Rev. Sowah Ablorh, the presiding Minister of Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Nantoma Congregation, Kanda in Accra, emphasized on the need for Christians to give all they have to God, and also the meaning of what true love is – to give until it hurts. He said, the Lord we serve is an all knowing God and he sees everything we do, and it is he who gives, and that there is the need to also give our all to the Lord. Rev. Sowah Ablorh also shared some testimonies of his personal encounter with God through giving and how the Lord has blessed him through it.
The atmosphere was a charged one, as important personalities from far and near graced the occasion.

NZULEZU EARNS LESS THAN A QUARTER OF THE TOTAL TOURISM REVENUE GENERATED

07:48:00 0

The development of tourism in more sustainable manner has helped increase in the country’s foreign exchange earnings. Thus, the promotion of domestic tourism in general and the development of historical, cultural and natural heritage sites in particular have made tourism a major source of domestic income for majority of Ghanaian, thereby improving the living conditions of inhabitants of the countryside where these sites are located. 


Statistics available at the Ghana Tourism Authority indicate that the facility, which was adopted in 2000 as a world heritage site, received a total of 13,163 visitors, both local and foreign, raking in GH¢790,074.00 as revenue in 2013 (http://goo.gl/amn9Fy)
Nzulezu, an Nzema word meaning “surface on water,” is a unique community-based eco-tourist site in Ghana with rich historical background and geographical location. The village is built on stilts and sits on the surface of Lake Tadane in Jomoro District, Western Region-Ghana. The people migrated from Mali and have been dwelling on the lake since the 16th Century. The village has a population of over 600 people who are predominantly into fishing and farming, petty trading, selling of African artefacts (small wooden canoe models) as well animal husbandry.
iTourGH is a social youth group based in Takoradi, Western Region, that is committed to exploring the various tourism sites and rich culture in Ghana. It looks forward in promoting and exposing tourism amongst the Ghanaian youths. In quest of exploring and promoting tourism amongst the Ghana youth, the group embarked on an educational trip to Nzulezu on August 27, 2016.

In the course of interactions, the tourist guard, an indigene of the community revealed that for the past years, the village receives only 12% as a share of revenue generated from the tour rates paid by tourists. The Nzulezu Visitors Centre situated in Beyin which is being managed by Ghana Wildlife Society and Ghana Tourism Authority is entitled to the remaining 88% of the revenue. 
Nana Takilika VII, Chief of Nzulezu, together with his people, has been demanding for increment in their share from the Ghana Wildlife Society and the Ghana Tourism Authority. The village has not been seeing any beneficial use of the remaining 88%. At times, the 12% is not even paid to them. “If we receive higher amount of the revenue generated, we can embark on some of the development projects the village wishes to achieve,” the tourist guard explained. Currently, the community is building a teacher’s quarters and a multi-purpose community centre funded by the 12% share of revenue they receive.

There is no health centre in the community. The village seeks to provide attractive packages for luring new teachers who refuse postings to their community and also motivating the old ones to stay. Also, the community lacks a Junior High School and this has resulted in majority of the school children not furthering their education after the completion of Old Nzulezu D/A Primary School. Only a few of the children further their education by attending schools located outside the village, with the nearest school located at Beyin Community. 
He said, “the village expects a lot of developments from the Ghana Wildlife Society and the Ghana Tourism Authority in terms of improving Visitors Facilities and Services like guest houses, bar and restaurants, museums and display of African artifacts centre, improved canoes in transporting tourists”. “Hosting tourists for more than a day in our community is also something that we are looking forward in doing,” he added.
