<\/p>\n
\u201c…But as your new leader, I am mindful of the many challenges that will confront us.\u00a0 Tanyigbe\u2019s challenges are real, but we will deal with them. Our challenges may not be easy to overcome, but we will mobilize our strength to overtake each of them. With your help, we will fight Tanyigbe\u2019s greatest enemies – youth unemployment, poverty, disease and underdevelopment\u201d, he stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cEducation is critical to the development of any society, and it is my aim to give the education of Tanyigbe people the greatest priority.\u00a0 It is my earnest desire to see that Tanyigbe becomes the land of the educated. In consultation with my fellow Chiefs and Elders, we will work to set up a Tanyigbe Educational Fund\u201d, Togbega Adiko VI said.<\/p>\n
