The Chiefs and people of Nabdam Traditional Area in the Upper East region have recognized and honoured the President of Eastwood Anaba Ministries, Rev. Eastwood Anaba, for his contributions to the development of the Region. They described him as a blessed son of the soil of Nabrug, who sprouted, blossomed and flourished with favour, flavour and irresistible fragrance despite geo-physical, political, cultural and socio-economic limitations and resistances of the fiercest calibre.
Giving the background of the renowned preacher and author, who is the Founder of the Fountain Gate Chapel in Bolgatanga, the Chiefs and people in a citation of honour, said, he is a root, out of the stem of Nyoknaab Patiakolog Anaba that shot out from the dry hilly and stony grounds of Damoi-Tindongo.
The Chiefs said Rev Anaba from a humble beginning is a man of unfathomable conscience, character and charity, who endures and endears himself as a beacon of hope and an exemplar of fortitude, future and influence that touched millions of lives across the country and the globe.
The Chiefs noted that Rev Anaba was effective in transforming the lives of people not just with the word of God, but by practical demonstration of love, timely and hearty social interventions, monumental and massive infrastructure and physical developments.
They mentioned the ‘Gibeath Har Elohim,’ a magnificent architectural piece of infrastructure at Damolg-Tindongo, comprising a thousand-seater-air-conditioned hall for the District Assembly, Chiefs and community use, a one-storey 100-seater community ultra-modern library and ICT project, a museum and guest house to accommodate visitors in the district. That, the Chiefs noted, was an inspiration and a prophetic statement that Nabdam would be prosperous.
They said the EAM Social Transformation programmes have made massive interventions in sanitation, health and water supply through borehole projects, medical outreaches and food donations to people, hospitals and institutions in the Nabdam and Talensi Districts, the Bolgatanga Municipality amongst other areas, are further testament of his love for his people and humanity.
