SENYA BERAKU

 As the world celebrates women internationally today, 8th March, 2021, the president and founder of Ase Pramaso Women Movement, a grassroot women organisation empowering women to champion and participate in community development, Rev. Mother Aba Folson, has made a categorical statement that this world would not be complete without women.  She made this statement while celebrating and appreciating the excellent contributions of all the Ase Pramaso women.  "...on behalf of myself and my executives...I  appreciate all our gallant women for their exceptional contributions to the world and in the lives of our families.

  The Acting Director of Communications at the Presidency, Mr Eugene Kofi Bentum Arhin, who has been accused of adultery by his wife has rather received much more respect from the public, contrary to the plans of his critics, who deliberately leaked the divorce petition on social media to tarnish his image.  In response to the divorce petition, which haa gone viral, Mr Arhin wrote on his facebook page; "I have seen a divorce petition filed by my wife, which has been deliberately leaked all over social media obviously to achieve a certain effect. I have still not been served with these court processes, and, upon receipt, my lawyers will respond accordingly. Every marriage has challenges, and such challenges should not be addressed in the court of public opinion. I will not, for the sake of my children, and for the dignity of my wife, engage in any public banter. In as much as many of the claims leveled against me are baseless and untrue, especially with respect to properties an...

  The founder and president of Ase Pramaso Women's Movement, Rev. Mother Aba Folson, has shared what she envisions about the Senya Beraku community, where she hails from and has strong passion towards it's development.  According to the Chief Executive Officer of NYANiba Health College she believes potentially  the Senya Beraku community has very close identity with the State of Florida in the United States of America and would wish investors and settlers choose the community for investment and rest after retirement.  Even though there is nothing to be compared between the United State and Ghana in terms of infrastructural, economics, military and other development elements, she sees this very town in Ghana, as a place where, like Florida, people from around the globe can choose for investment and residence after retirement. She posted this on her private facebook page: According to the mobiliser of the strongly  growing women movement in Ghana, Senya Beraku is ...

 Ten years ago we the youth of Senya Beraku began a revolution - a mega call for traditional, economic and social reform. We have not achieved all the dreams but we have come very far so far. 1. We facilitated the entrance of great men and women from Senya back to Senya. For example, Dr.  J. K. Esibu (Prof), Mr. Kwaw Ansah (TV Africa), Ipi Kwa Bentum (Tufuhene) etc.  2. We played major role in the establishment of scholarship scheme by Dr. Esibu and we have seen not less than 600 youth achieving their academic dream both home and abroad.  3. We have played key roles in some youth gaining employment opportunities both in private and public institutions. 4. We played key role in ensuring Senya Beraku revives and rebuilds its traditional council.  5. We played key role in the filling in of certain vacant stools in the Senya Traditional Area, eg., the installation of the Tufuhene, Ipi Kwa Bentum IV. 6. We played key role and limiting encroachment on our boundaries, ...

  The date, 27th December, is marked with a painful scar in the memory of the people of Senya. On that fateful date in the year 2011,  every single home in Senya Beraku was affected by the fatal wind that blew our brothers, sisters, friends and mothers, while they were joyfully celebrating the holiday.  We lost 27 souls with more also fatally wounded. The emotional wound was terrible and still lingers in the heart and minds of our people. But while this brings bad memories annually we ought to also realise it is a wake-up call for all of Senya to rise up, unite and build a common future and destiny. We need to lay aside all difference and acrimony from any divide, be it political, chieftaincy, asafo, religious, etc. Our elders ought to wake up and ensure that we consolidate every gain so far and find a new path away from all that draw us back.  The youth also need to wake-up first to the acknowledgement of the fact that life is not all about today and tomorrow but ra...

  The founder of Ase Pramaso Women's Movement, a women's group originating from Senya Beraku in the Central Region with members across the globe,  committed to empowering women and increasing their participation in community and national discourse and development, Rev. Mother Aba Folson, sends seasonal greetings:  "Christmas is a moment when Christians around the globe celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. This celebration is not a carnal attempt to merely be happy, eat,  dine and wine. It is rather a demonstration of our great joy and appreciation to God for giving us His only begotten Son.  The Bible says we love Him because He first loved us. Therefore, the celebration of Christmas is a reaction to how greatly God saved and celebrated us with angels in heaven when we became born again.  As we go to our various churches, visit family and friends, spend time and joyful moment with our loved ones, let us continue to reflect on all the goodness of Go...
