Winneba, April 28, GNA- The acting Awutu- Effutu-Senya District Chief Executive, Captain Steve Kwamena Armah (Rtd), has lauded the efforts of the Winneba branch of the Local Council of Churches for contributing effectively towards the campaign against HIV/AIDS. Capt. Armah who addressed a forum dubbed: "Peace for the Nation" forum organized by the Council at Winneba said the churches had initiated a number of HIV/AIDS intervention programmes that had raised public awareness about the pandemic.
The forum was aimed at ensuring peaceful celebration of the annual "Aboakyer" festival of the Effutu Traditional Area, scheduled for May 7. Capt.
