Yesterday, I had the honour of receiving the Minister for Roads and Highways, together with his Deputy and the Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Highways Authority, in the North East Region for an important inspection of ongoing road projects across the region.

The inspection tour commenced at the Mishio Bridge Project, a critical infrastructure intervention that links the western part of the region to the Mamprugu Moagduri area, while also enhancing connectivity to neighbouring regions and boosting socio-economic activities.

The team also inspected the Gbintiri–Nakpanduri Road, which has been captured under Government’s flagship Big Push Initiative, as well as the Chereponi–Saboba Road project, also under the same transformative programme. I am pleased to state that all ongoing road works inspected are progressing smoothly and at satisfactory levels.

I am equally delighted to announce that, as part of the contractor’s corporate social responsibility on the Gbintiri–Nakpanduri project, the contractor will be donating six brand-new pickup vehicles to the Police Service, constructing a police station, building three six-unit classroom blocks along the Gbintiri–Nakpanduri stretch, and constructing CHPS compounds to improve healthcare delivery within the affected communities.
We highly commend the contractor for this remarkable gesture and for the impressive progress of work executed so far.

Furthermore, following the Roads Minister’s firsthand assessment of the deplorable condition of the Gbintiri–Chereponi Road, I am happy to announce that plans are far advanced for the road to be awarded for works to commence soon.

I wish to sincerely thank the Hon. Minister for Roads and Highways and his delegation for this important visit and for Government’s continued commitment to improving road infrastructure in the North East Region. We look forward to many more transformational developments across our road network.

Yesterday, the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress, Hon. Johnson Asiedu Nketia, extended his nationwide thank you tour to the Chereponi District in the North East Region.

I joined the Member of Parliament for the Chereponi Constituency, together with regional, constituency, and branch executives, to warmly welcome our National Chairman on this important tour aimed at expressing gratitude to the good people of Ghana and the chereponi constituency for once again entrusting the NDC with the mandate to govern.

It is without doubt that within the past one year and five months, the Chereponi Constituency has witnessed remarkable transformational developments in key sectors such as education, healthcare, road infrastructure, and the government’s flagship 24-hour economy market initiative.

In his remarks, the National Chairman commended the people of Chereponi for the prevailing peace in the area, emphasizing that peace remains the foundation for sustainable development. He further assured the people that as peace continues to thrive, government will bring even more development to improve the lives of the people.

Earlier today, I had the honour of joining the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Hon. Johnson Asiedu Nketia, at the burial and funeral service of the late Hon. Duut Emmanuel Kwame, former Member of Parliament for the Bunkpurugu/Nakpanduri Constituency.

The solemn occasion brought together family members, friends, traditional authorities, party faithful, and sympathisers from across the country to pay their last respects to a distinguished statesman and committed cadre whose dedication to public service greatly impacted the lives of many within the constituency and beyond.

As we mourn his passing, we also celebrate a life of commitment, sacrifice, and service to humanity. Hon. Duut Emmanuel Kwame served his people with passion and unwavering dedication, and his contributions to the development of the Bunkpurugu/Nakpanduri area and Ghana’s democratic journey will forever remain memorable.

On behalf of the people of the North East Region and government, I extend my deepest condolences to the bereaved family and all loved ones affected by this great loss. May the Almighty grant him eternal rest and give the family the strength and comfort needed during this difficult time.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.

Earlier today, I paid a working visit to the Mishio Bridge Project site at Mishio to inspect the progress of work following the full resumption of construction activities.

This follows a strategic meeting with His Excellency the President of the Republic, where, together with the Hon. Minister for Roads and Highways and the contractor, decisive steps were taken to ensure the continuation of this important project.

The completion of the Mishio Bridge will significantly improve road connectivity by opening up the Yagaba enclave, enhancing transportation, facilitating trade, and boosting economic activities within the area and beyond.

Having personally witnessed the ongoing works on site, I am highly impressed by the level of progress and commitment shown by the contractor and his team. I am confident that, with the unwavering support and commitment of His Excellency the President, this all-important bridge project will be successfully completed for the benefit of our people.

Government remains committed to delivering critical infrastructure that will improve lives and accelerate development across the region.

Today, at the Regional Accountability Series held at the Regional Coordinating Council in Nalerigu, I highlighted key achievements, ongoing developmental projects, and government interventions across the North East Region.

We accounted for our stewardship of our 16 months in office on key areas. From roads, education, agriculture, water, health, and security infrastructure. Government remains committed to improving the lives of our people and accelerating development in every district.

Together, we will continue to build a stronger, safer, and more prosperous North East Region.
