The Builsa South Youth Association (BYSA) has condemned in no uncertain terms the barbaric killing of Mr. Agbedem-nab, a young man from Baasa Community a suburb of Fumbisi in the Builsa South District - Upper East Region on Wednesday, 20th January 2020.

The late Agbedem-nab is said to have been allegedly killed by some unknown assailants from Wiesi, a community in the Builsa South District.

A statement signed by the Association’s Executives and copied to all media houses stated that “we condemn in no uncertain terms the barbaric act which has soiled our beloved peaceful district with blood”.

The association commends the District Security Committee (DISEC), the District Police Command, Chiefs and Sub-Chiefs” both from Fumbisi and Wiesi, the District Chief Executive, and all other stakeholders for their swift interventions in ensuring that “peace has prevailed in the District.”

The Association has, therefore, cautioned the youth in the district to remain calm and not to take the law into their own hands as the district and regional police command work to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to book.

Meanwhile, BSYA has called on the District Police Command, the Reginal Police Command, and the Minister of Interior to step in quickly and salvage the situation to avert reprisal attacks and further bloodshed.

A Ghanaian Development Communication Specialist, Administrator, and Freelance Journalist based in Ghana, West Africa, with a strong interest in rural development, social advocacy, media engagement, and community empowerment.. More An ambitious media, development communication, and administrative professional with over two decades of experience in public service, journalism, and institutional administration, seeking to leverage a rich and diverse skill set within the communications and development arena. Throughout my professional journey, I have consistently demonstrated leadership, professionalism, innovation, and a relentless drive for excellence in every responsibility entrusted to me. My passion lies not merely in communicating information, but in using communication as a strategic tool for social transformation, community empowerment, and sustainable development.

As a seasoned Development Communication Specialist and Administrator, I strongly believe that communication should serve society responsibly and meaningfully. Journalism, to me, is not simply about putting words and sentences together, reporting events, or entertaining audiences. It is about probing deeper into issues, going beyond the surface, uncovering hidden truths, amplifying marginalized voices, and engaging directly with communities — especially the vulnerable and underserved — to understand their realities and contribute to lasting solutions to their challenges.

Over the years, I have built extensive experience in public communication, administration, stakeholder engagement, media relations, rural sensitization, and social advocacy through my work with Ghana Cocoa Board and my contributions as a freelance journalist and writer in Ghana, West Africa. I have authored numerous articles on national development, governance, agriculture, labour relations, and social issues across major Ghanaian media platforms, demonstrating strong analytical, writing, and public engagement skills.

My academic background in Development Communication and Management Studies has further equipped me with the capacity to design and implement communication strategies that promote behavioural change, community participation, and institutional growth. I am deeply committed to socially responsible journalism, ethical communication, and development-oriented media practice that prioritizes people, progress, and accountability.Column: Analimbey, A.
