Divisional chiefs and sub-chiefs in Akuapem North Municipality have hailed the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) Dennis Edward Aboagye for his work ethics, passion and commitment to his job and the decisive leadership he has brought to bear since assuming office in 2017.

Speaking after an Economic Tour organised by the Akuapem North Municipal Assembly, the chiefs heaped praises on the President Nana Addo Dankwah Akufo-Addo for his vision in appointing the young dynamic Chief Executive.

They expressed shock at the level of industrialisation and socio-economic developments on the rise in the past three years following his appointment.

Nana Appianti, Tutuhene revealed that, in his entire period as a chief, having experienced several chief executives in the municipality, this is the first time he is experiencing real social impact programmes, projects and activities.

He praised the Municipal Chief Executive for his human relation skills which fuels his ability to mobilise all the chiefs in the municipality behind him and the government.

“As we speak, there’s no single chief in Akuapem North, who doesn’t know what’s going on in terms of development in the municipality. Apart from knowing, he has been able to clearly outline to us, the specific role he expects us to play. I for one, he has tasked me and I’m about to conclude discussions with him on tracts of land in Akwateakwaso which he has clearly indicated, we offer to Citi FM to support the operation feed yourself project they have started,” he said.

“As chiefs, this is all we need, someone who can mobilise us, coordinate and get us to support the government as they work to bring development to our people,” he added.

The Gyaasehene of Akuapem Nana Osim Kwatia II in speaking with the media after the tour, hailed the MCE for his skill in keeping all stakeholders together and around the government's agenda.

“In my ten years of reign, I have never experienced this kind of leadership being shown by the young Dennis Edward Aboagye and I encourage him to keep it up.

Clearly, he’s shown to all of us that the government is on track and delivering on all their promises and as chiefs, we will give him all the support he needs from us.”

Hailed as one of the best performing Municipal Chief Executives in the Akufo Addo government, he is highly regarded by citizens and opinion leaders in the Akuapem North Municipality.

The MCE is praised for his innovations, commitment and passion in the delivery of his mandate as the lead development agent in the municipality.
