Reggae and Dancehall musician Livingstone Etse Satekla better known as “Stonebwoy” and Ghanaian British Entrepreneur Dentaa Amoateng, (MBE), joined the management of the Royal Senchi Hotel on a tree planting exercise in support of the Green Ghana Project.
The Green Ghana Project, an initiative of the government is aimed at planting at least five million trees across the country kicked off last Friday with various organisations and individuals partaking in the exercise.
Stonebwoy who was on holiday with his family at the resort took part in the symbolic exercise undertaken at the premises of the waterfront resort and the courtyard of the Akwamu Royal Palace on June 13 at Akosombo, Eastern region.
A total of 17 trees of various species which were earmarked for planting, is expected to add to the hotel’s reserve of natural as well as man-grown flora for beautification and eco-preservation purposes.
In a brief speech, Stonebwoy, a climate change ambassador, endorsed the government’s initiative, highlighting its importance in helping undo the effects of harmful practices on the environment.
“My family, my team, and I feel very honoured to be hosted by Royal Senchi and offered the opportunity to do my bit in this tree planting initiative,” he said, adding: “As a climate change ambassador, I believe so much in giving back to the environment what we take from it, and so my being part of this exercise is very intentional and only reaffirms my commitment to it,” the multiple award-winning artiste said.
