He gave the advice Tuesday in a tete-a-tete interaction with your authoritative ghanadistricts.com on the sidelines of a courtesy call paid to him by the reigning Ivorien Beauty Queen (RCI Most Beautiful) with the two predecessors of hers, in his palace at Amenfi in the Bondokou Municipality of the Zanzan Region of La Cote d'Ivoire.

Nana Kwasi Agyemang lamented on the rampant nature of crime wave bedevilling both Ghana and the Ivory Coast and attributed it to the youth who, out of uncontrollable desire for materialism and insatiable demand for worldly pleasure resorted to all forms of fraudulent means to make ends meet and amass wealth in the processs.

Citing the upsurge of unwholesome practices through which confidence tricksters and deviant people generally exploited and extorted people and institutions, buttress his assertion, the renowned king cautioned the youth to desist from such barbaric acts as in cyber fraud, money laundering, misappropriation and embezzlement of public funds, human trafficking, pilfering, robbery in its worst form and obnoxious human sacrifice, since the repercussions were indeed disastrous.

Nana Adinkra Agyemang made a passionate appeal to all stakeholders involved in education to ensure quality, equitable and affordable educcational standard for their wards since Education remained the bedrock of a state.

SOUND ADVICE

Nana had this sound word of wisdom for the youth who could not make it for higher education: "Whether school or not, we are obliged to work harder and smarter. Youth, without school, must be resilient at farming. This will bring effective relief to you and your family, as against disgraceful sentiments and hardships in diverse ways."

To all chiefs, elders and people of the Ivory Coast and Ghana, Nana Adinkra had this message for them: "Stop dragging disputes. It does not pay to do so. Try to bury the hatchet, keep brotherly love and affection and ensure mutual help and moral support for all and sundry."

Nana Bonohene urged the dear populace to shun arrogance and embrace unity and selfless interests for, "With love and oneness, progress is rest assured for any nation."

THE BONOHENE'S JURISDICTION

The four main provinces in the Ivory Coast, which are directly under the authority of the Bono King are Fumasua, Ankobea, Pinanko and Akyidom (Goumere); all of which have many a sub town and village under them.

Besides Suma, Dwenem, Dormaa, and Japekrom Traditional Councils, there are several other territories of Bono and their subjects in Ghana which equally fall under the kingdom of Bonohene.

It is through the instrumentality of the reigning Bonohene's foremost ancestor that the widely acclaimed 'Adinkra' symbol came into existence.
