The Paramount Chief of Nsein Traditional Area in the Western Region, Awulae Agyefi Kwame, has voiced his disappointment in the Akufo-Addo-led administration.
He expressed his dissatisfaction with the deplorable state of roads in the region, emphasizing that the second term of President Akufo-Addo has been a disappointment for him and his people.
During a press conference held at his palace on Tuesday, October 31, the chief highlighted the ongoing issues with the Takoradi to Agona-Nkwanta road, which has been subject to intermittent blockages due to its deteriorating condition.
He asserted that the region has not witnessed the promised benefits of the “4 more 4 Nana” slogan, as the current administration has allowed the roads in the region to deteriorate to an unprecedented extent.
“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 urged the President and his appointees to prioritize the repair of the region’s roads before the 2024 election campaigns.
“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.”
