The Paramount Chief of Nsein Traditional Area in the Western Region, Awulae Agyefi Kwame, has expressed his disappointment at the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration.
Disappointed by the deplorable state of roads in the region, the chief insisted that the second term of President Akufo-Addo has been a disaster for him and his people.
Addressing the press at his palace on Tuesday, October 31, he highlighted the persistent issues with the Takoradi to Agona-Nkwanta road, which faces intermittent blockages due to its deteriorating condition.
According to him, the region has not reaped the promised benefits from the “4 more 4 Nana”, as the current administration has seemingly allowed the region’s roads to deteriorate to an unprecedented level.
“As for the Western region, our major problem is the poor nature of our roads, anybody who drives on the Agona Nkwanta road will notice how bad they are. I wonder if they are the same roads that Akufo-Addo plans to drive on to campaign.
“Under this NPP government, if we are being truthful, the roads in the Western region have all rotten. The government’s failure on the side of the Western Region simply put, the 'Four more for Nana' has been a disaster for the Western Region. When you look at the minerals from the Western region this should not be our reward."
Awulae Agyefi Kwame thus asked the President and his appointees to ensure their roads are fixed before the 2024 electioneering campaign.
“The voice of the Western region has not been heard under this Nana Akufo-Addo and Bawumia government and we must speak up or else all our roads will completely deteriorate.”
