Stonebwoy, the creator of The Livingstone Foundation (TLF), has clarified the standards his charity used to choose communities for the borehole project.
In an interview, he revealed that fluency in the Ewe language was not a deliberate factor in the selection of communities in Takoradi.
He remarked “It’ll shock you to know that the towns in Western Region where the initiative is taking place are people who speak the Anlo language predominantly.
He continued “I never even thought this was the case because the team went to the grounds to select the community around the suburbs of Takoradi and I was shocked to hear the people speaking Ewe when we got there.
“So I asked myself that these are people from Volta Region staying here in the Western Region speaking Ewe fluently but it wasn’t even my intention,” he revealed.
“Before the initiative we researched to find out places that galamsey has affected most especially with their source of drinking water,” he said on Cape Coast-based Property FM.
