Africa-Press – Ghana. Mr Wisdom Osei Boamah, District Chief Executive for Atwima Nwabiagya South Municipality, has assured residents of the area of the assembly’s commitment to provide infrastructure to help transform the living conditions of the people.
He said the assembly had initiated a few development projects aimed at improving basic social amenities to enhance their socio-economic conditions.
Mr Osei Boamah was speaking at a sod-cutting ceremony for the construction of health and educational projects in three communities in the municipality.
The beneficiary communities are Atwima-Agogo and Atwima Mim, where a clinic with nurses’ quarters are being constructed for the people at the cost of GHS 124,589.67 each.
The Bankyease community is also benefiting from a three-unit classroom block with a 12-seater toilet facility and a mechanized borehole, at an estimated cost of GHS 801,731.38.
The projects, which are expected to be completed in six months, are being funded through the District Assembly’s Common Fund.
Mr Osei Boamah, pointed out that, tender, evaluation and all processes including approval of budget had been complete.
He charged the contractors to work hard and complete the work within the stipulated time.
The MCE also urged the chiefs, assembly members, and the community members to co-operate with the contractors to ensure successful completion of the projects.
He said the assembly would work to improve infrastructure for the people to understand that they made the right choice by voting for the NDC in the 2024 general elections.
He mentioned poor roads, electricity, and bad communication networks, as challenges facing some communities in the area, and said urgent attention was being given to address them.
Nana Akwasi Owusu Ababio, Chief of Bankyease thanked the MCE for the project and appealed for the tarring of the 19-kilometre road linking the community to other parts of the municipality.
He encouraged the MCE to continue to work hard since that could earn him a bigger position in his political career.
Nana Akwasi Amakwatiah Asempa Nkwantabisa, Adonten-hene of Atwima Agogo also called for improvement in the road network in the area to prevent drivers from charging unapproved lorry fares.
