Mensah Korsah commissioning one of the projects
COMMUNITIES INCLUDING cities and towns benefiting from Ghana Secondary Cities Support Programme (GSCSP) under the urban development grant from the World Bank have been urged to retain the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to see to the completion of all ongoing projects under the grant to transform their lives.
Local Government, Decentralisation, and Rural Development Minister, Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah, advised the people of Dormaa Ahenkro and Berekum Municipalities when he commissioned various phase one projects in the two areas.
They include a new transport terminal with various ancillary facilities such as police and fire service stations, an ambulance post, five waiting lounges, mechanised borehole, 14-seater water closet, 6 bathrooms, 21 lockable stores, and pavement for the Dormaa Ahenkro township.
The new transport terminal is designed to accommodate all transport agencies operating from Dormaa Ahenkro to other destinations within the country
Addressing the public, the minister who doubles as the MP for the Techiman South Constituency said the people were witnesses to various government projects completed and ongoing in their towns and cities.
He explained that every government has its priority projects so if they failed to renew the mandate of the NPP government and vote for another party there is the likelihood of the next government abandoning these projects to go for their priority projects.
“You can testify that these projects have transformed Dormaa Ahenkro. This is phase one and I want to inform you that Dormaa has qualified for phase two…so if you change this government the next government may not be interested in these projects and will discontinue them,” he admonished.
Dormaa Sanaahene, Baffour Kwadwo Damoah- Afari who represented the Omanhene, Osagyefo Osadeoyo Agyemang Badu II, as the chairman acknowledged the town is getting its fair share of development projects.
“Dormaa has seen good roads. The old lorry station too has been renovated,” he acknowledged.
