Nii Ayi-Bonte, however, cautioned the family to be proactive in seeking the welfare of all and sundry with mutual respect, based on brotherliness to accelerate the socioeconomic development in the area.

Nii Reindorf commended the Gbese Mantse and his Council of Elders for their foresightedness and unwavering support to ensure peace within the family which had culminated in unity with the Stool.

He promised that the family would continue to adhere to the new principle of unity for development and work in tandem with the Stool to bring the needed development to Gbese and its teeming youth.
