The Chiana-Nakong road—a vital route for travelers heading to the Upper West Region—is undergoing a transformative facelift. The initiative, spearheaded by Chiana-Paga District Chief Executive Mr. Gerald Ataogye, marks a significant step forward as the District Road Improvements Programme (DRIP) equipment has been mobilized to address the road’s long-standing issues.

During a recent visit to the Upper East Region, Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia reassured the community that a contractor would soon be dispatched for the road repairs. However, in response to mounting calls for action, Mr. Ataogye took it upon himself to secure the necessary resources, catalyzing the much-needed repair work.
As of Sunday, October 27, 2024, reports from Apexnewsgh indicated remarkable progress on the rehabilitation, bringing much-deserved relief to commuters who had suffered for far too long on the bumpy journey. This road upgrade is just one part of an overarching initiative to enhance infrastructure within the region.
Further boosting the project was the collaboration with Prof. David Millar and the Millar Institute for Transdisciplinary and Development Studies (MITDS). As they prepared for their upcoming 10th anniversary celebration, Prof. Millar stepped forward, providing fuel to support the ongoing construction efforts. His generous contribution allowed the team to work more efficiently, paving the way for a smoother and more durable road surface.
On a recent visit to the site, Prof. Millar expressed his admiration for the progress made by the construction team, noting the quality of the work accomplished thus far. The partnership between the District Assembly, under Mr. Ataogye’s leadership, MITDS, and local stakeholders not only exemplifies community-driven development but also highlights the power of collaboration.
This collective endeavor aligns seamlessly with the government’s broader commitment to improving regional connectivity.
With the Chiana-Nakong road’s impending upgrade, residents and travelers alike can look forward to a safer, more reliable transportation route that promises to invigorate travel, trade, and economic growth throughout the region.
