Following fruitful deliberations, two resolutions were reached:
Firstly, a constitution review committee headed by Barr. Tony Azebi, alongside other lawyers from Amassoma, was entrusted with the task of examining all draft constitutions within a two-week timeframe and presenting their findings to the community.
Secondly, a committee was established to develop a framework for the selection process of the next Amanana-owei of Amassoma community.
Additionally, Hon. Rodney recommended the formation of a committee comprising three members from each Ama in Amassoma (a man, woman, and youth), who will be responsible for proposing guidelines within two weeks for the selection of the next Amananaowei.
