Mrs. Lucy Twumasi-Ankrah, Regional Director of Education for Ahafo Region, was first to be contacted in Bechem where her regional office is located. The team was cordially welcomed by the regional Public Relations Officer and the Director of Human Resources on behalf of the Regional Director of Education. The National Cadet Coordinator General introduced the delegation and formally presented the newly appointed Regional Cadet Coordinator, Cadet Lieutenant Stephen Asamoah Russ. The Regional Director for her part, enthusiastically welcomed the Cadet Coordinator and mentioned that she has been in communication with the new Regional Cadet Coordinator for some time now and assured him of the region’s support as well as how best to get him a table when they move into their new office. In the interim, though, all officers in the region are sharing the little space available.
    
The delegation left to Goaso, the regional seat of Ahafo Region, to meet with the Honorable Regional Minister at the Regional Coordinating Council. Mr. Jacob Ntiamoah, the Regional Economic Planning Officer, welcomed the team on behalf of the Regional Coordinator Council.
He mentioned that the Regional Minister Honorable George Boakye was not in the region and the Chief Director was in a closed door meeting with all the heads of security agencies in the region on behalf for the Regional Minister.
