RETIRED EDUCATIONIST MADE CHIEF (PAGE 23, MAY 3, 2010)

A SIXTY-TWO-YEAR-OLD retired educationist, Mr John K. Hobenu, has been installed the chief of Tsakpe Atsia Fume in the Kpando District under the stool name Togbe Dake IV.
He succeeded his uncle, Togbe Dake III, who died about a year ago.
Togbe Dake IV retired as the Northern Regional Director of Education in 2008, having previously served as the Volta Regional Director of the Ghana Education Service (GES).
Before then, he had served variously as the Hohoe and Kadjebi District Director of Education.
Togbe Dake also served as the Kpando District Secretary during the provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) era.
Swearing the oath of allegiance to Togbe Kwaku Tatse V, the chief of Kpando Tsakpi, Togbe Dake said as an educationist, he would make it his priority to promote educational opportunities for the youth.
He said he would co-operate with the Kpando District Assembly to ensure the success of the street lighting and drainage projects being undertaken in the town.
