Nana Addo Danquah Akufo- Addo and other relevant\nstakeholders to respond to the Chieftaincy rivalry between Upper and Lower\nDixcove to avoid any further mayhem that may undermine the cordiality between\nfuture generations among the two traditional areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been an uneasy calm for decades between the two\ntraditional areas in the Ahanta land of the western region since the departure\nof Nana Hima Dekyi (XIII) who joined her ancestors. Subsequently it is believed\nthat Lower Dixcove Traditional Area comprises of thirty-nine (39) communities while\nUpper Dixcove is attached to nine (9) communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This endemic rivalry and misunderstanding&nbsp; has even prompted some newly installed\nChiefs, Queen mothers, Elders and residents&nbsp;\nto seek refuge following an eruption of near violent confrontation where\nNana Akwasi Agyemang (IX) Omanhene of Lower Dixcove allegedly mobilized\naddicted herb gangs &#8220;wee smokers&#8221; from &nbsp;his Traditional Area to disrupt the launch of\nDixcove Kundum festival on Saturday 25th May 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obrempong Nana Hima Dekyi (XIV), in a profound statement\nduring the official launch of the annual celebration of Dixcove Kundum festival\nsaid the security system in the Ahanta land has been compromised for decades,\nwhile the Upper Dixcove Traditional Council does not trust the Ghana Police\nService for protection of resodents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The theme for the 2019 Dixcove Kundum festival is <strong>&#8221; OUR YEAR OF RETURN: THE ROLE OF\nAHANTAMAN IN SUSTAINING OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We picked up intelligence that the Omanhene of Lower\nDixcove, Nana Akwasi Agyemang IX emphatically promised to disrupt the launching\nof 2019 Dixcove Kundum festival which his words came to pass, Obrempong Nana\nHima Dekyi XIV alleges&#8221;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking to the Chiefs and dignitaries at the function\nObrempong Nana Hima Dekyi (XIV) revealed that he on behalf of the Upper Dixcove\nTraditional Council requested for security enforcement from the Takoradi\nDivisional Command of the Ghana Police service for the protection of lives at\nthe launching of Kundum festival but it proved to futile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aptnewsghana.com\/index.php\/2019\/02\/25\/takoradi-11-mmdas-to-contest-independence-day-quiz\/\">Obrempong Nana Hima Dekyi XIV<\/a> has meanwhile urged
