The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Chairman for the Ahafo Region, Kwabena Owusu Sekyere, has said the people of the region are grateful to President Akufo-Addo for instituting another milestone achievement in the region.
In a statement released at Goaso recently, he said, “truly His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has the Ahafo Region at heart, per the number of developmental projects he has rolled-out after Ahafo was declared a region via a referendum.”
According to him, two districts (Asunafo South and Asutifi North) have been earmarked for the new 100-bed hospital projects across the country to give access and quality healthcare to the people of Ahafo.
He said for the President to name the two districts as beneficiaries of the 88 nationwide hospital projects is a clear indication that the national cake is fairly shared to uplift the development of the region, and it is a plus for the government.
“The chiefs and the people of Ahafo are grateful to you for giving them two district hospitals,” the Regional Chairman said. He explained that aside the two district hospitals to be constructed, which is fresh in their minds, there are many developmental activities being rolled out by the Nana Addo-led government in the region in the areas of road, health, and education among others.
On the road sector, he said work had already started on the Nobekaw-Sankore Highway in the Asunafo South District, Bediako-Kasapen-Camp 15 road in Asunafo North, Bechem-Deema-Techimantia road in Tano South, Mim-Sunyani road in Asunafo North, Acherensua-Tepa (Asutifi South) and Kenyasi-Hwidiem stretch in the Asutifi North and South districts.
According to him, in education, which is pillar for development of the country, about 50 infrastructural projects for Senior High schools in the region are in progress.
Touching on health, he mentioned that currently a clinic with staff bungalows has been constructed at Kwapong in the Asunafo South District; each district can now boast of well-equipped ambulance, and there are other facilities in the region being supported by the government.
The Regional Chairman also revealed that the government had started constructing a modern district assembly block for Asunafo South to facilitate the work of the local government staff in the district. When completed, it will be one of the finest in the region, and Ghana as a whole.
He further said vehicles in the best of conditions have be given to major departments and agencies in the region to undertake their mandated duties to bring development to the region just like others.
“It will be unfair and unacceptable not to maintain this government for the next four years, per the development raining on you,” he said.
The Regional Chairman challenged people, especially those in National Democratic Congress (NDC), to visit the listed communities to verify for confirmation, instead of doubting.
He urged the people of Ahafo to support President Akufo-Addo and his government to do more for the region, which suffered under the previous government (NDC).
