The Deputy Minister
of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Madam Dzifa Abla Gomashie has called on Metropolitan,
Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to collaborate with Ghana Education
Service and the Centre for National Culture to revamp Arts and Cultural activities
in the various basic and second cycle schools in the country, as a means of preserving
and promoting the rich Ghanaian culture.
According to her,
Arts and Culture is what distinguishes a person or a group of people from
others hence the need to ensure it never goes extinct, noting that without art
and culture a person or group of people has no identity and heritage.
This, she said is
necessary in protecting the country’s culture heritage against western
adulteration and imbibing true Ghanaian values and patriotism among the youth
and generations unborn.
