Your initiatives have lessened our burden – Wa chief to President Akufo-Addo

The Paramount Chief of the Wechiau Traditional Area, in the Wa West district of the Upper West Region, Naa Alhaji Imoro Nandomy-Gomah II, has applauded the Akufo-Addo-led New Patriotic Party Government for implementing policies that have made life bearable for many Ghanaians.

Addressing the people during President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s visit in the Upper West Region, the Wechiau Chief, Naa Alhaji Imoro Nandomy-Gomah II said “several development initiatives have been rolled out nationwide. These initiatives have made life bearable for all Ghanaians, of which the people of Wa West are no exception.”

He stated that “for instance, the Free Senior High School programme, which allows us to use money that would have been spent on education, to be held up in our pockets. The Planting for Food and Jobs Programme, subsidized fertilizer programme, 1-Village-1-Dam, expansion of School Feeding Programme, are all beneficial to us, and for which we will forever be grateful.”

He added that “I’m also reliably informed that about seven dams, so far, have been constructed in the district. Though we are most grateful for that, we want more to happen, like Oliver Twist, we are asking for more”.

The Wechiau Chief also thanked the President for presenting tractors and power tillers to the Wa West District, under the Agric Mechanisation programmme, assuring the President that “we shall ensure that the equipment is put to good use, instead of being misused.”

He, thus, urged the Ghanaian people to allow President Akufo-Addo to “to focus and accomplish his Ghana Beyond Aid project. We can assure you that, we shall do all in our power to assist in carrying out all your cherished flagship programmes for the interest of our people.”
