The chiefs, elders and the people of Afife Traditional Area have installed Torgbui  Gbewoaza I as their Ngoryifia (development chief).

Known in private life as Mr William Kwaku Dogbey, Torgbui  Gbewoaza , until his installation, was the Managing Director (MD) of Wilkado Construction Works Limited, a general building and civil construction company in Accra. 

Present at the ceremony were Torgbui Tenukpo Azadagli III, Fia of Tadzewu; Torgbui Agbeve Ayirim III, Dufia of Agbevekorpe, and Regent Yao Avornyo of Dufia Ayivor Stool.

At the event, Torgbui Adzaklo V, Dusifiaga of Afife and President of  the Afife Traditional Area Chiefs Association (ATACA), extolled the good works of Torgbui Gbewoaza I and urged him to help develop the Afife area.

He expressed the hope that Afife would witness a reawakening, which was long overdue.

He pledged the support of all the other chiefs, assembly members, unit committees and people o the area for any initiative that the newly installed development chief would undertake.

For his part, Torgbui Gbewoaza I, asked all the people to allow peace to prevail in the area, stating that in the absence of peace, development and prosperity would elude the area. 

He also asked all the chiefs and heads of institutions in the area to furnish his office with their contacts and  developmental plans as soon as possible since he was determined to hit the ground running.

According to him, he would execute programmes for the development of the Afife Traditional Area by mobilising all resources within his reach to uplift the image of area.
