The chief of Bonsuoku, Nenyi Kweku Kwei VI, has officially held a sod cutting ceremony to construct an ultra-modern market and a police station for his community. The sod cutting ceremony, which officially commenced the construction of the two pressing facilities, also marked the fulfillment of a pledge made by Nenyi Kwei to his people during his enstoolment.
It would be recalled that during his installation, Nenyi Kwei assured his people that the development of the community to improve the livelihood of the people would be his topmost priority.
Speaking at the official ceremony, Nenyi Kwei VI stated that he was concerned about the hustles faced by young people, who desire to venture into businesses.
To address this, he indicated that the yet to be built multi-purpose market would provide safe and adequate spaces for dressmakers and other artisans to work and also keep their machines safely.
“After the successful completion of your apprenticeship, you don’t have to go round looking for money to buy a container before you work. You just pick your machine and move into the market because there would be available shops,” he said.
According to Nenyi Kwei VI, the market would also have retail and whole sale depots to save time and travelling risks that market men and women mostly endured to bring goods directly from factories in Accra.
As a fast sprawling community, the market at Bonsuoku would be expected to serve as a central hub for trading activities to bolster the economic drive of the town.
Additionally, it would be expected to create jobs for local traders and serve as a source of income for individuals, families and contribute profoundly to plight of the local people.
According to Nenyi Kwei VI, since the market would be envisaged to create employment, many people would be willing to move to Bonsuoku, because of the strategic location of the market. As a result, he said there was the urgent need to also provide security for the market and the community as a whole, so that businessmen and women in the area would not become soft targets for miscreants.
This, he explained, necessitated his desire and that of his entire Nananom to build a befitting police station where policemen would be accommodated to help deal with any threats from criminals.
If completed, the police station would be essential for the maintenance of law and order to ensure the safety of the public and promote maximum security for the community.
The presence of a police post in the town would deter would-be criminals, trouble makers and provide swift response to the security needs of the people.
