The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Adaklu and Dean of Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) in the Volta Region, Jerry Ameko, has cut the sod for two major development projects aimed at boosting education and improving sanitation in the district.
The first project involves the construction of a two-unit kindergarten (KG) classroom block with ancillary facilities for the people of Wumenu. The facility is expected to provide a safe and conducive learning environment for early childhood education and strengthen the academic foundation of children in the community.
Speaking in an interview with Adom News, Mr. Ameko reiterated the government’s commitment to expanding access to quality education. He emphasized that investment in early childhood education remains a key priority, as it supports child development and eases the burden on working parents.
In a related development, the DCE also cut the sod for the construction of a 10-seater toilet facility and four bathrooms for animal traders at Adaklu Waya. The project is aimed at addressing longstanding sanitation challenges at the animal trading centre, where access to decent washroom facilities has been limited.
Mr. Ameko noted that the sanitation facility would improve hygiene at the market and help prevent the spread of diseases, urging traders and users to take proper care of the facility once completed.
Traditional leaders, including Togbe Sekpe III, Chief of Adaklu Wumenu, together with community members and local authorities, expressed appreciation to the District Assembly for responding to their needs. They described the projects as timely interventions that will enhance education and public health in the area.
The projects form part of the NDC government and the Adaklu Waya District Assembly’s broader efforts to promote infrastructure development and improve living conditions across the district.
