With a strong belief and passion for improving the lives of our
people through education, our DCE has over the last four years
invested heavily in providing infrastructure at all levels of
education from pre-school to the second cycle. In that direction
we are all witnesses to his bold decision to build 12 new school
buildings fully furnished with furniture, ICT laboratories and
offices and staff common room out of which 8 has been
completed and currently in use in the following communities:
Awiebo, Basake, Bomoakpole, Asanta, Salman, Awiaso, Teleku
Bokazo and Ankobra. Another 4 are near completion in
Nvenlesolo, Aiyinase Nyamebekyere, Nzema Akropong, and
Esiama.
All work and no play they say makes jack a dull boy. We believe it
is for this reason that our DCE did not overlook the provision of
recreational facilities in his development agenda. Ladies and
gentlemen from the press this edifice, an ultra-modern
Community Center built by the Assembly for the people of Akoto;
which has served as the venue of today’s event is a major
testament to his vision. A much bigger version of this is also
currently being constructed for the people of Asasetre and
expected to be completed soon.
In the fight against illegal mining (galamsey) our DCE has since
2019 embarked on over 16 security operations using the police,
DISEC and Operation Vanguard leading to the arrest and
prosecution of several galamseyers. Indeed, his uncompromising
stand against galamsey activities in the District made him incur
the wrath of a cross section of the youth which then cost him lots
of votes in certain communities during the 2020 general elections.
