He made this known during a colourful installation ceremony which attracted chiefs from other communities amid cultural display.

A piece of white calico was wrapped around the chief’s head to signify his installation and Muslim prayers were offered to seal the exercise.

Sarki Karim Dawda pledged to collaborate with the Chief of Kwaprow, Nana Kwesi Mensah III to transform the Kwaprow Community.

Sarki Karim Dawda again appealed to the government to work in collaboration with the Zongo Chiefs to address the challenges of youth unemployment facing the zongo communities.

He advised the youth in the various Zongo’s to take their education seriously and be wary of politicians who oftentimes recruit them for negative vices during and after general elections.

Sarki Karim Dawda again appealed to the youth in Zongo Communities to be law abiding and desist from any unpleasant acts.

On his part, the Chief of Kwaprow, Nana Kweasi Meansah was happy to have Sarki Abdul Karim Dawda as Zongo Chief of the area and promised to work together with him to develop Kwaprow.
