The Special Guest of Honour, Honorable Akwasi Amoako Atta who is the MP for Atiwa West recounted the special relationship he has forged with the people of Abomosu. He recounted the sacrifices and selfless display of courage exhibited by the people of the town in the face of blatant aggression unleashed on them by the security agencies during the Atiwa Bye Election in 2010. It was such resilience exhibited by citizens of Pomaase and others in the Constituency which culminated in his being made the MP.? He would be eternally grateful to them.

In appreciation of such selfless services rendered to the Atiwa District which he has had the opportunity to serve as its Presiding Member when it was first created, he promised to donate a Giant Generator for use of Abomosu Health Centre and 50 bags of Cement from his share of the Common Fund, come Sunday, 7TH April, 2013. He also promised to provide an Ambulance for the Health Centre before the year runs out.

There was plenty to eat and drink.? The programme was interspersed with cool and high life music and members danced their hearts out.? Osabarima Ameyaw ll and Frank Ayim Damptey were unofficially crowned the Best dancers in Hi-life and Azonto dance respectively. Questions pertaining to the progress and welfare of the town which were asked by members present were excellently answered by the dignitaries on the High Table.

The vote of Thanks in impeccable English and Twi was given by Nana Biama, with the Benediction rendered by Reverend Nyarko Doku.? Mr Daniel Danquah Damptey and Miss Rose Arhin were the MCs for the event.
