Nana Agyakoma Dufie II, the Queen mother of the Asante Mampong traditional area, has urged queen mothers to open their doors and make their courts easily accessible to all those who need their services. 

She said holding the queen mother title was a prestigious position which carried significant responsibilities and duties to serve the people. 

It was important for queen mothers to always make themselves easily accessible by allowing people, especially women, to come to them with whatever problems they might have and help to resolve them. 

Nana Agyakoma Dufie made the call at the inauguration of the Ashanti Council of Zongo Chiefs Queen Mothers Association, at the Kumasi Central Mosque. 

The Association is made up of all women traditional heads of the northern tribes residing in the Ashanti region, under the guidance of the Council of Zongo Chiefs. 

She said the establishment of the association marked a positive step forward, especially in a time, where women had been marginalised because of certain customs and traditions. 

Nana Agyakoma Dufie expressed firm belief that the formation of the association would greatly contribute to fostering unity and solidarity among the Zongo tribal queen mothers in the Ashanti Region. 

She reminded the queen mothers of the recent passing of the Affirmative Action Act by the Ghanaian Parliament, which aimed to promote gender equality and empower women by addressing the systemic barriers that had hindered them in Ghanaian society. 

Alhaji Musah Akambonga, the President of the Council of Zongo Chiefs and leader of the Frafra Community in the Ashanti region, advised the youth against being manipulated into engaging in violence during the lead-up to the general elections. 

He encouraged the youth to critically analyse the policies and manifestos of the political candidates and make informed decisions on whom they choose to support. 

Alhaji Akambonga said the flag-bearers of the two major parties in the country hailed from the northern region, and for that matter, whoever emerged victorious in the election should be viewed as a positive outcome for the northern community. 

Hajia Mahama Sakinatu, the President of the Association, said the leadership was committed to implementing inclusive decision-making processes for the advancement and sustainability of the association.
