Traditional authorities from the Akatsi North District in the Volta Region have appealed to President John Mahama to fulfill his pledge to complete several long-abandoned projects in the district. The chiefs, led by six Paramount Chiefs, emphasized that these projects, which include critical roads such as the Ave-Dakpa to Akatsi road and the Ave-Afiadenyigba to Korve road, are vital for the community’s development and the livelihoods of its residents.
The abandoned market store project at the Ave-Dakpa market, initiated under Mahama’s previous administration, was also highlighted. The chiefs urged the president to consider completing these initiatives for the betterment of the district.
Additionally, the chiefs recommended Hon. Peter Nortsu Kotoe, the MP for Akatsi North and a seasoned educationist, for the position of Minister of Education. Kotoe’s extensive experience as Ranking Member on the Education Committee in the 8th Parliament has earned him recognition as an asset for reviving the country’s education sector.
The chiefs concluded their letter by congratulating President Mahama on his electoral victory, signaling their continued support for his administration’s development agenda.
