Nkosuohene Enstoolment
@ Nyame Bekyere
Enstoolment of Nana Kwabena Duku I
After accepting the title of Nkosuohene – Chief of Development – for the town of Nyame Bekyere in 2020, Diallo Sumbry – Nana Kwabena Duku I – was formally enstooled, or raised to power, by fellow chiefs, queen mothers, and community elders on Monday, October 31, 2022.
This event was witnessed by thousands, and included a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the newly constructed Nyame Bekyere Community Center (construction funded and managed by Nana Kwabena Duku I), a concert by DC’s Black Alley Band, and special guest attendees (and newly adopted citizens of Nyame Bekyere) – Gabrielle Union-Wade, Dwayne Wade, and Kaavia Wade.
My VISION
Nyame Bekyere: A Model for African Development Beyond Aid
As Nkosuohene, Chief of Development, I believe Nyame Bekyere can be a model for durable, self-reliant and regenerative community development in Ghana and all of Africa.
