President Akufo-Addo Admits Neglecting Ekumfi Development After Election Defeat

President Nana Akufo-Addo has openly acknowledged that he had diverted his attention away from the development of Ekumfi constituency after its residents voted against his preferred parliamentary candidate, Francis Ato Cudjoe, in the 2020 elections. Despite appointing Ato Cudjoe as the Deputy Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture, the president expressed disappointment when he was voted out of parliament. During a meeting with traditional leaders from the constituency at the Jubilee House, President Akufo-Addo candidly informed them of his decision to neglect Ekumfi following Ato Cudjoe’s defeat. He admitted, “I did not pay attention to development in your area, I have to be honest with you, but since you have brought it up, I will pay attention to it.” The president’s sincere confession indicates his willingness to address the concerns of Ekumfi and prioritize its development, despite initial setbacks.

They designated a V8 for carrying shovel and pickaxe following president around for sod-cutting—NDC Communicator alleges

A member of the National Democratic Party (NDC) Communication team Isaac Ayemvoa Atambila has alleged that the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) designated a V8 that is carrying a shovel and pickaxe following the President around just for the purpose of sod-cutting. Mr. Ayemvoa popularly known as ‘UNDERSTANDING’ made the pronouncement on Apexnewsgh.com development programme dubbed “SPEAKOUT UPPER EAST REGION” on Friday, September 16, 2022. He was responding to some developmental issues on the ongoing Agenda 111 projects within the Upper East Region as he sighted Pwalungu Multipurpose dam, and One Village One Dam as failed projects in the region by the Akufo-Addo-led government. “We told this project in 50 months, roughly close to four years. Here we are today we are almost there and if you go to the site now, is as good as a grazing yard for animals, with nothing to show. In fact, the contractor had suddenly packed back to somewhere. Now are been told stories. There are several significants that are playing out to that particular project but I don’t just want us to dwell on this though. But we are not moved by sod-cutting. It was a political campaign promise just to get people to vote for them”. “So, what they did was that they designated a particular V8 and in that V8, you have a shovel and a pickaxe so that any place the president traveled to and it turned to a campaign, if a chief comes out to say he wants a hospital. The President will ask, do you have a land? If the chief said yes, President will say oh okey tomorrow let’s go there, and i will cut a sod”.
