A scene during the programme
EMMANUEL Atta Ofori, the District Chief Executive (DCE)
for Kwahu South District in the Eastern Region, says all the government
flagship projects and programmes are progressing steadily in the district.
Speaking at the assembly’s first meet-the-press briefing
at Mpraeso, he said, “The government’s flagship programme of Free SHS and
others are steadily on course in the district.”
He disclosed that the government’s $1 million per constituency
was being used to construct modern solar-powered W/C, mechanised boreholes and
some CHPS compounds in the district.
He said the assembly made inroads in education where
brilliant but needy students had been awarded scholarships to the tune of
GH¢60,000 under the decentralised scholarship scheme.
He said agriculture, which has been boosted by the
Planting for Food and Jobs initiative, was doing well and many farmers had
benefitted from subsidised fertilizer and other farming inputs.
He stated that the assembly had supported persons with disability
to the tune of GH¢319,000 in the form of Financial & Business support in
the past two and a half years.
Besides, the DCE said they were working hard to fix
myriads of problems facing the district and added that the Akufo-Addo
administration was committed to ensuring the prosperity of Ghana.
