Africa-Press – Ghana. Mr. Charles Appiah-Kubi, the District Chief Executive (DCE) for Bosome Freho in the Ashanti Region, has embarked on a community engagement tour as part of efforts to bridge the local governance and the people.
The visit, which took him to communities such as Besease, Sumdadieso, Freboye, and Anyaso focused on understanding community challenges, sharing the government’s development agenda, and reinforcing collaboration between the Assembly and residents.
Addressing gatherings in the various communities, Mr. Appiah-Kubi emphasised the government’s commitment to grassroots development and inclusive governance, aimed at lifting rural communities out of poverty.
He reiterated the importance of community involvement in governance to ensure equitable distribution of national resources.
The DCE also touched on the need for landlords to be considerate when renting out their properties, especially to public servants such as teachers.
This came in response to complaints from teachers in Freboye about unfair treatment by some landlords.
He noted that creating a welcoming environment would encourage workers to remain in the area and contribute meaningfully to development.
On agriculture, Mr. Appiah-Kubi highlighted the importance of safeguarding government-supplied farm inputs to enhance productivity.
He cautioned cocoa farmers against the misuse or sale of subsidised inputs, warning that anyone found culpable would be arrested to ensure transparency and fairness in the distribution process.
Mr. Appiah-Kubi announced that the government would soon roll out initiatives to support agribusinesses.
These include the establishment of one-stop hubs to provide farmers with access to essential services, resources, and technical support to improve their livelihoods and boost productivity.
