The Chiefs and people of Krakyi Atimatim, Yaa Aso, Odumkyere, Daamang and other adjoining communities in the Upper West Akim District of the Eastern Region, have expressed gratitude to the Nana Addo-led administration and the DCE Mr. Fredrick Adom Obeng for the construct of their road.
The excited residents told Rainbow Radio’s Prince Collins Bening that the successful construction of the road shocked them.
They stated that they less believed the government when it promised to construct the road in the run-up to the 2020 general elections.
”If we had thought that a government would come and construct the road, that would be a mirage. We had no hope nor trust in our politicians because, since 1973, the road had been in a poor state. Several governments came and promised to construct the road, but they failed to do so. President Akufo-Addo has done well, we are grateful to him,” a resident said.
Another said ”we are happy. We want to thank the DCE for this project. He had promised to construct the road, and true to his word, the road had been constructed. But just like Liver Twist, we want more. Unemployment is a major challenge for the youth in the area. We want jobs for the youth in the communities”.
One other resident said ”our gratitude goes to President Akufo-Addo and his DCE. The poor road was a major problem we had, but it is history now. However, we are appealing to authorities to create jobs for the youth in the communities”.
