The chiefs of the four traditional areas within the South Dayi District have paid a courtesy call on the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr. Johnson Asiama, to congratulate him on his appointment and pledge their support for his tenure.
During the meeting, the chiefs offered prayers for God's protection and guidance for the Governor as he takes on his national responsibilities. They also used the occasion to discuss key development needs in the South Dayi District.
Dr Asiama expressed deep appreciation for the visit and the support shown by the chiefs and people of South Dayi.

Touching on pressing issues, the Governor revealed that he is in close contact with the Deputy Minister of Finance to find a lasting solution to the water crisis in the Kpali and Tongor areas.
He assured the delegation that the issue would be resolved before the onset of the next dry season.
In the area of education, Dr. Asiama disclosed that plans are underway to construct dormitory facilities for all Senior High Schools in the district.
